The boxes are made by Moyo - an 'informal carpenter'. We knew that these boxes are in high demand but he was not selling much so we offered to help him sell them.

 

The problem with a raised box is that its soil system gets isolated from the natural system and therefore dies out, so you need to give it a dose of biology to reduce the chances of disease in your plants. Be sure to add a bag of vermicompost to boost it. It should be filled with top soil/potting soil and a bag of compost on top. Some people like to use a plastic lining to avoid soil washing out and making a mess, but if it is positioned on soil then it is no problem.

  • The wood is protected using Boiled Linseed Oil which is the least toxic type of varnish. Therefore, you do not need to use any liner in the box.
