Earthbox...insight please

birdermom · March 11, 2015

I am adding a small "in ground" garden this year but will continue with container gardening, especially with dwarf tomatoes this year. My question....I have looked at numerous diy boxes and the earthbox site. I do not have lots of tools and limited ability(lol) with diy....so is it better to purchase the boxes...they come to around 37 per box with shipping or do I try a diy? I want something that is going to last, have no "plastics" that will leach, and will work effectively without having to redo, etc, every year. Those of you that have had direct experience with earthboxes and diy boxes please give your opinion. Thanks!
