We had a smaller pine tree topple in a wind storm as well as a large branch off a weeping willow. Rather than chopping the trunks into rounds, I was thinking of stacking 2 of these narrow trunks on top of each other to create a side for a raised bed. This rather than buying wood…has anybody used narrow round logs?
Also, how high should we be raising these beds? My beds are mostly flat as I was using Charles’ method from some years back recommending flat. Without sides to raised beds, they seem to flatten out over summer and the compost and topsoil just end up in path.
