The Perfect Raised Bed

[Stew]

To bump this up….

I have a lot of engineering blocks - think breeze blocks but heavy - and I’m considering using them as raised bed edging. They won’t rot but do you think it’s a bad idea otherwise? Obviously it’ll take more space to fit them than a wooden board but I’m wondering if that’s a suitable compromise for the longevity (and being free)

Definitely. If I had the blocks, I'd do just that
