I was wondering if it would be out of line to dig a five foot hole and bury my bed. I realize that an advantage of an above ground unit would yield in more surface area to plant in but I am in the midst of building regular beds terraced on a hillside. I would like to improve on the "old style" of architecture. I think that in interesting people in the original style of a HK bed this may be the "gateway" method. Kind of pushing people toward the "cliff edge" of what I see here on this forum.
