Best Keyhole Composting Garden Bed

The Composting Keyhole Garden brings all of the revolutionary ideas necessitated by the limitations of that climate to your garden – enabling you to achieve a higher yield with less work. Keyhole Gardening is a sustainable method – Add alternating layers of brown and green matter (newspapers, cardboard, vegetable scraps, etc.) to the center compost bed. This adds carbon, nitrogen, and air to the soil enabling you to produce a large amount of nutritious, organic food using the least amount of space and the least amount of water. Not only is the African Keyhole Garden drought tolerant, but it is also raised, reducing the need for bending and stooping. Could this be any better? – Yes! The African Keyhole idea is an old idea, but we manufacture it with premium, modern materials, so that all you need to do is give it a quick spray with a garden hose to keep your African keyhole garden looking beautiful year after year – and we’ll guarantee it for twenty years. If you would rather not use the Keyhole Garden as a composting bed, simply load it up full of good soil instead. Then start planting.

We’re thrilled to introduce this growing technique to home gardeners! Our U-shaped, elevated Keyhole Garden has an integrated composter that transforms kitchen scraps into rich fertilizer and delivers it to plants. Pioneered in Africa, self-sustaining keyhole gardens are a traditional way to grow food in regions with poor soil and limited rainfall because they require less water and fertilizer to produce a big harvest. Keyhole gardens are traditionally filled half-way with alternating layers of “brown” and “green” materials, similar to building a compost pile. As these materials decompose, they build rich, fertile soil, and they act as a sponge to hold moisture so it’s available to plants during dry times. You can fill the rest of the bed with a mixture of potting mix, topsoil and compost. You’re ready to plant! (If you prefer, you can fill the entire bed with a blend of potting mix, topsoil and compost.)

Keyhole gardens are a brilliant garden design that lets you compost & grow vegetables in the same garden!

What if there was a way to enjoy your beautiful raised garden, grow your own herbs and compost your kitchen waste, all in a pesticide-free environment? Introducing the 4X7 Keyhole Herb garden. The keyhole bed is almost 2′ high (great for those with a bad back or sore knees). The compost basket in the middle is designed to handle your kitchen waste, turn it into compost and nourish all three beds, fertilizer free! Your two lower beds are for companion planting. Expert gardeners know that while pesticides can stay on your plants for longer than you wish, nature herself provides a way to prevent insects from attacking. As an example, the aroma of basil will confuse the pests that threaten your healthy tomato plants! As an added bonus, tomato will pick up the flavor of both basil and oregano when grown side by side! The best news is that this is one garden whose boards you will never have to paint, stain or replace. It is not to rot, warp, crack or turn yellow in the sun for twenty years! Happy gardening!
