    cost of fitting a sleeper raised bed in the garden

    I am interested in fitting a raised bed in my garden. How much will it cost in terms of the supply costs to put together a sleeper raised bed. What are the steps involved in completing this work by myself? I am guessing it is not an especially difficult job to do DIY, is that correct?

    How to protect fence

    I have a new build house with a little slope, I want to put the garden on 2 levels, bottom will be paved and the top I want to build a retaining sleeper wall with artificial grass on top. The right side of the garden will be fine to put soil up against as it has a brick wall to retain the bottom of the houses next to us but the other side the left hand side has a fence running along the slope. So If I build a retaining wall, all the soil will be up against it. How can I make sure I don't damage the fence? Thanks
