What is a vegetable bed?

A vegetable bed is a raised area of soil in a garden that is used for growing vegetables. It is typically made from soil, compost, and other organic matter, and is usually about 12 inches high and 4 feet wide. The height of the bed helps to improve drainage and aeration of the soil, and also makes it easier to access the vegetables. Vegetable beds can be planted with a variety of vegetables, including tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and lettuce. They can also be used to grow herbs and flowers.
