[Community_garden] redwood borders around plots

[Mike McGrath]

never heard of the hemlock thing; Osage orange is the other naturally rot 
resistant wood I know of. A lot of this depends on what's available locally 
where you are, which you don't seem to indicate...
    If you go here: http://www.gardensalive.com/article.asp?ai=543
you'll find a list of (hopefully) every raised bed framing option.
                                Good luck!
