The Pi-Garden is a circular container garden, based on the principles of the traditional square foot garden system. These are small intensively planted gardens that often use raised beds, but with the Pi-Garden the round container garden shape is self-supporting.
No effort and expense of installing traditional garden support systems. Your Pi-Garden will make gardening possible in areas with no growth potential.
• Round Raised Bed Garden totally self-supporting
• Quick, Easy & Economical to install
• Use as Victory Garden or Community Garden
• Poor soil? No soil? No Matter!
• Roof, Patio or Balcony Container Garden
• Round means easy navigation - no corners!
Unlike some other raised bed gardens, the Pi-Garden is a full 12 inches deep so that roots have plenty of room to grow even if you put the raised bed on a hard surface. Use it as a Victory Garden to grow vegetables for your table and to share or swap with your friends. And with your Pi-Garden, you will avoid the toxic pesticides found in many store bought foods. Put up several as a Community Garden; the Pi-Garden raised bed container garden is perfect for locations with bad soil conditions and can also be set up directly onto pavement. Put up one on your patio or balcony and have fresh produce where no garden ever was.... Tuck a small one into an unusable space in your garden to have fresh herbs for cooking.
The possibilities are endless......
Whether you want a small raised bed vegetable Pi-Garden, or a commercial enterprise container garden, or are concerned with food supply and security, our Pi-Garden is the most economical way to enjoy the benefits of raised bed gardening.
Our round raised bed garden is self-supporting using the engineering principle that a circular thin wall can contain fluids without supports. The outward pressure of the media inside the Pi-Garden maintains the walls vertically and round, so inexpensive materials can be used.
The Pi-Garden is your answer to lower cost when compared to other raised bed garden options. This innovative container garden has no stakes or other support systems. And because it is round, it has no hard-to-reach corners like square foot gardens.
We use galvanized steel because it is the most economical, it will last many years under normal circumstances. The green plastic top edging gives it a smooth and elegant finish, and protects the plants from damage. The smooth walls and edging also help discourage critters who may want to snack on your vegetables.
A conventional square foot garden has adequate access but the circular container garden configuration greatly improves upon this because it is the same distance to the center from anywhere around the garden bed.
Use as a roof Pi-Garden (check first of course that your roof is strong enough, use a light well-draining media, and pay attention to drainage).
Poor soil or no soil? Simply install your Pi-Garden in any unproductive area and fill with the media of your choice. It will also make the perfect compost pile for whatever size you need.
Our standard Pi-Garden contains 7 two foot long by 12" high sections of wall which form an approximately 4.5 foot diameter container garden with approximately 16 square feet of growing space, equivalent to a 4x4 foot square garden. All fasteners and green plastic top trim strip are included. You can set up your raised bed with less panels to make a small garden dedicated to, say, a selection of mints or thymes, or add in a panel to make a large strawberry raised bed.
The Pi-garden is beautifully adapted for drip feed irrigation. Our optional kit is a round feeder tube around the inside edge of the garden, this loop is connected together with a tee so it is fed from both ends.
Radial tubes can be fed from this using tees or spaghetti tube to individual plants. Soaker hose and mini sprinklers may also be used - the options are endless and open to your imagination.
The circular design is also superior for the many accessories that can be added to the garden, for example: bean pole tee pees, hoop structure for plant support, or tents (bird net, shade net or plastic for frost protection), and many more.
Include extra panels, spare parts, weed mat circles, string support eyes, irrigation kits, hoop system and various plant covers.
Media, Soil or Dirt
The standard garden requires approximately 13 cubic feet (1/2 cu yd) of media to fill it.
Set it and forget it! This is the easiest system I have ever set up for raised bed gardening. It falls into place so easily when you fill it up.
I set up four in half an hour, planted my plants and within two weeks was already harvesting my basil, tarragon and oregano. My next projects are a compost heap, and a snail (escargo) farm! Kris, San Diego
