We have repurposed wood pallets into many different items in the past like the wood pallet pumpkin trellis and growing potatoes in wood pallets. Today I ran into a very interesting project that you can also use them for. Why didn’t I ever think to build this diy wood pallet garden before?
These are easy to make and are great when you need to save space or have limited space in your garden. They are perfect for growing your salads, such as your lettuce and other greens too. Wood pallets are often available for free, therefore this could be a zero cost project.

Here’s What You’ll Need:
- wood pallets
- lettuce seeds
- good garden soil
- organic fertilizer
- compost
- shovel
- bleach
- soap
- water
Make sure you are using heat treated (HT) wood pallets and even then it is recommended that you wash them in bleach plus soapy water before using them for your garden.Then you simply lay your pallets on the ground, where you want your want your garden located.
Fill the spaces in between with your garden soil. You can mix in your compost and or your organic fertilizer into the soil, before planting your seeds in rows. Water your garden, and your seeds should start to germinate within a few days. Enjoy your new garden! 🙂
