BUFCO Raised Garden Beds
Why Raised Beds | From beautifying and organizing your space, to reducing physical impact while gardening, to growing more food in less space, there is a long list of great reasons for choosing raised beds for your garden. |
Eastern White Cedar | All BUFCO raised garden beds are hand crafted using Eastern White Cedar, a locally sourced, responsibly harvested and sustainable wood that offers excellent rot resistance. |
Garden on any surface | Beds can be installed as open-bottomed boxes exposed to the soil below, or with a bed base for use on hard surfaces such as a patio or driveway. |
Installed by our Expert Team | Installation services are managed by our experienced, knowledgeable, and friendly crew, and includes everything from soil to full clean up. |

Hex Series
BUFCO’s hexagonally shaped beds, or Hex beds, are constructed with four-inch thick Eastern White Cedar fence post. They can be nestled together to create a honeycomb pattern, or can stand alone, as your space and aesthetic desires. Hex Beds are available in either a four-foot or five-foot diameter, in a variety of heights, and are expected to last at least ten years.
Hexagons are known to be the strongest of geometric shapes, and are found throughout nature (think honeycomb and snowflakes). They are also the most efficient geometric shape in that, when nestled together, they leave behind literally no wasted space. Various human societies throughout history have brought meaning to the shape, including some Indigenous cultures where each side represents one of the six directions – north, south, east, west, the upper regions (sky) and the lower regions (earth). The Jewish Star of David is believed to have similar directional representation, with each point looking to a specific direction. In the centre of the Star of David? A hexagon.

The installation was professional on every level and every detail was considered. On top of it all, my garden beds were filled with all of the gorgeous soil that wasn’t put into the raised bed! Debbie’s garden plan has worked out beautifully and has put me on the right path for my first growing season. It has been a wonderful experience from start to finish. Thank you.”

The guys did a great job and are very easy to work with. I’m very happy with the results. Within hours after we finished the work, people passing by our front yard started to tell me how nice our garden looked.”
