Thank you, Rosie and Jay. The bed was actually after the landscapers did what they thought was raising it...it was definitely worse before.
That's a great idea, Rosie! It combines the idea of French drain drainage and building the bed higher! The rain is fairly rare, so it's not really a bog situation except occasionally. I'll talk to the landscaper--maybe he will agree on that.
I had thought about stock tanks as a way of doing a raised bed. That could definitely be done. I couldn't really do cement blocks by myself in the location it's in, but I've thought about using those for a raised bed in the future.
Thank you~!
