Picture of a new raised bed that a community gardener and I installed last night in only 40".

Total cost without tax was around $100 for new boards and the 8 Oldcastle concrete raised bed corners:

I was not aware of those, and I just found that my local Lowes has a ton of them. I have an existing raised bed, but it's due for a rehab, probably this fall.

Your bed looks fantastic. Did you reinforce with rebar? It looked like there might be a hole in the center of each corner for that, but I couldn't see very clearly in the Lowes photos. (?) The blurb did mention this, but not clear in the pix. Also, what wood did you use for the sides?
