Pallet: A portable platform typically used for storing and transporting goods, but often repurposed in gardening for creating vertical gardens, raised beds, or compost bins.
Pallets are those sturdy wooden structures you often see stacked behind stores or warehouses. They’re usually used for shipping and storing goods, but they’ve become increasingly popular in gardening for their versatility and affordability. With a little creativity, pallets can be transformed into all sorts of useful garden features.
One popular use for pallets is to create vertical gardens. By attaching planters or containers to the slats, you can grow a variety of plants, even in small spaces. Pallets can also be used to build raised beds, providing better drainage and soil warming for your plants. They can even be disassembled and used to construct compost bins or other garden structures. Repurposing pallets is a great way to add a rustic touch to your garden while being environmentally conscious.
