To be in tune with these times, it is best to take advantage of everything that we have around us in order to recover disused objects and adapt them to our needs while spending little money.
Pallets have become essential parts of many homes. You can find them on the street or in supermarkets and they have many uses. It takes a little ingenuity and some skill with your hands to reuse them in the garden, either to create rustic pots or to have a vegetable garden.
The elements
It is not necessary to have many elements to make a small vegetable garden with pallets. The first thing is to have three or four wooden pallets and then you will need one Plastic meshanother central element of our future garden.
In addition, it will be very useful to have some tools such as hammer, drill, a saw and a bit as well as some screws, sandpaper, a thick brush or paintbrush and varnish.
Step by step
The first thing you should do is disassemble the pallets very carefully. It is the hardest part of the job as disassembling them can take some time.
Once this task is finished, it is time to take a sandpaper and pass it through the wooden slats and then varnish it with the brush. You can opt for a chemical varnish or an ecological one if you want the final product to be 100% natural.
Once the woods are ready, it is time to take the hammer and the screws to shape the garden. You can do it as you like, either divided into sections or in a simple rectangular shape, using four slats for the walls and one wide or several for the base. If you want it to be in height, you will have to add four additional woods for the legs. Be careful with the screws and make sure the garden is very solid.
The last step to get the vegetable garden made with palletsis to place the plastic mesh, which must be on the base of the garden in order to prevent the earth and water from coming into contact with the wood and damaging it.
Once the garden is ready, it is time to place the substrate and the plants that you like the most to enjoy organic products that grow in your own home.
