[Cob] cob raised beds?

[Yun Que]

   Cat here,  In my area there are many cut stone.  I have collected them
   for years and have made my raised beds from these.  In areas that do
   not have the cut variety there may be stone available to dry stack.
   It takes some doing to dry stack but it looks beautiful.  It's about
   the same as doing the foundation to your cob only not as wide.  When I
   lived in CA the mexican workers were very talented building these.
   The paths between the beds can be done of sand and lime it makes for
   less weeding.
   for the good of all C.
