Wooden pallets are more than “having a moment”. In recent years, they’ve made their way in and onto nearly surface imaginable.
Fromfurniture对于百叶窗、走道和灯具,木托盘是最好的升级回收机会之一。而且你经常可以免费得到它们。旧托盘不仅是一个环保的选择,而且它们还有很多很多的用途。托盘花园建设者利用了这种多样性。
Gardening has traditionally been something that required a fair amount of space and workable land in order to make it functional and worthwhile. This meant that anyone living in apartments or condominiums, or who rented their homes instead of owned them, was left out of the loop when it came to having a garden of their own.
进入托盘园,几个问题都得到了解决。它们根本不需要太多的空间,甚至可以垂直挂在墙壁和栅栏旁边。此外,当需要移动时,它们可以很容易地拆卸。在花园中使用托盘木的另一个好处是它的内置能力,使种植和分离蔬菜和草药更简单。杂草很难在托盘上生长,这意味着更少的维护。
Getting your hands on a few pallets is relatively simple. Ask your local recycling center where you can find them or contact businesses you know that receive shipments on pallets to find out what they do with them once they’ve unloaded their product.

1. Traditional Pallet Garden
Making your own pallet garden requires little more than pallets (look for those thathaven’t been treated with chemicals), soil, and seeds or plants. Pallet gardens can be as small as one pallet, or as large as you have room for. Simply lay in your chosen, sunny spot, fill with dirt, and plant your seeds or plants in the provided rows.
2. Succulent Plant Pallet Wall
Before we get too far down the path of vegetable gardens, remember that pallets are also a fantastic option for flowers and other plants as well. Take a succulent wall, for instance. This is especially nice for anyone who is in love with succulents and needs to consider a vertical option to maximize space. The succulents are securely planted on black landscape fabric, providing an aesthetic background that’s quite elegant. Just make sure your pallet garden is installed on a sunny wall to ensure your succulents thrive.
3. Vertical Pallet Garden
为了充分利用垂直木托盘花园,在每一层使用稻草来保持水分。
It’s hard to believe the large volume of herbs and vegetables that can come from such a small space.
4. Backyard Pallet Garden
Our backyards are a place of respite and relaxation. Incorporating a pallet garden into where you rest and play is an opportunity to spend even more time outside. Enjoy the fresh air and the bountiful harvest.
5. Vertical Herb Garden
For some, growing herbs is one of the first ways they get started in gardening. It’s also a nice option for the accomplished cook who’d like a low-maintenance, easily-accessible herb garden just outside the door. This vertical pallet herb garden is simple to make and looks lovely as well.
6. Large Stacked Pallet Garden
节省空间是托盘花园最大的优势之一,而堆叠它们不仅做到了这一点,而且它提供了比人们可能期望的更多的增长机会。这些升级的木托盘几乎就像一个托盘种植机,为有很多根的植物提供足够的深度。
7. Raised Bed Pallet Garden
This may take just a bit more time to create as it requires disassembling and reassembling pallets, but the results are raised pallet gardens that prove easy to work in, since they require less bending and stooping to tend them.
8. Flowering Pallet Wall
The visual effect of a flowering pallet wall is quite unexpected. This is an especially nice option if you like cascading varieties such as petunias. A flowering pallet wall fits nicely in virtually any spot, so it’s a good choice for those without much outdoor space to work with. Sooner or later, you’ll have flowers growing out of all of the slats!
9. Hanging Pot Pallet Wall
If you’re interested in something a bit simpler, consider using a pallet as a wall to hang potted plants, flowers or herbs from.
10. Vine Grown Pallet Garden
院子较小的人通常避免种植南瓜和瓜类作物,因为它们需要很大的空间让藤蔓蔓延。有了托盘花园,你可以垂直种植这些东西,只占用一小部分空间。
11. Painted Pallet Garden
To really dress up the look of your pallet garden, go ahead and splash a few shades of your favorite color on them to brighten up your outdoor space.
12. Pallet Garden Table
What about a multi-purpose way to upcycle a pallet? This clever table is a recycled pallet with a succulent garden built right in.
13. Supported Pallet Garden
If you’d prefer to use a pallet to grow your produce vertically, but have no wall or fence to work with, just give your pallets a little support.
Now you can put them wherever they’ll get the right amount of sunlight in your yard.
14. Built-In Pallet Garden
Sometimes we’re looking for a creative way to display flowers, or perhaps herbs and plants. Check out this unique way of using pallets to work with roses within cedar wood chips. Rather than the pallet serving as a raised bed, it’s installed into the ground to let your garden’s soil provide the plants with nutrients.
15. Pallet Garden Walls
通过在相邻的角度放置两个或多个垂直花园来创造一些分隔,以最美丽的方式提供隐私。这是一个伟大的方式,使您的庭院更美观,同时也创造了防风林和更多的隐私!
16. Lattice Pallet Wall
Pretty up your deck or patio with a pallet garden adorned with lattice to create a flowering wall. As compared to other projects, this garden utilizes just the pallet boards rather than the whole pallet.
17. Small Pallet Garden
When you’re really only looking to grow a few herbs or some flowers in a smaller area, you can use portions of a pallet to build a mini garden. This is perfect for spaces like windowsills or balconies.
18. Backyard Pallet Garden Oasis
The more you can incorporate into your outdoor spaces alongside your pallet garden, the more time you’ll spend working and playing in your backyard oasis.
19. Pallet Compost Bins
Many gardeners choose to maintain a compost bin to take advantage of the nutrients compost provides to the soil. Pallets are a simple, economical way to create your own compost bin in a short amount of time.

20. Strawberry Pallet Planter
如果你喜欢在你的花园里种植草莓(谁不喜欢呢?),这个托盘花园的想法绝对值得考虑!用花园织物或稻草将草莓直接种植到土壤中,很快你就会有足够的收获,这样你就可以在任何你想要新鲜草莓的时候避免去杂货店买草莓了。
With a little creative thinking andthese DIY design plansfrom Lovely Greens, you’ll have a strawberry garden in no time.
Selecting Pallet Wood For Your Garden
Before you toss just any old pallet into your garden, its important to mention that there are some things you should keep in mind, especially if you’re growing edible plants in your pallet garden.
Many wood pallets are treated with methyl bromide, a toxic pesticide that can negatively affect your lungs. Air on the side of caution by utilizing wood pallets that are untreated, or heat treated.
Additionally, avoid any pre-painted pallets. Latex paint is often used on pallets to indicate where they were manufactured, but could potentially pose a problem if you’re growing edible plants on them.
最后,一定要选择质量好的托盘。一个新的托盘是没有必要的,但一个很少使用的托盘是理想的!它们在你的院子里会用得更久,看起来更锋利!

I saw a few that I’d never seen before. We had our garden fence made of pallets, a combustibles shed (storage of gas, oil and machines that use them), a goat kidding “room” within the barn so I could separate does at kidding season, a kid pen, a pen around the rabbit hutch (to keep water bottles and hutch safe from the goats), a chicken perch (tilted so they wouldn’t crap on each other) and a workbench all made entirely from pallets. Oh, and a pallet standing on end is a great long handled tool holder.
At my new place, I have a floor made of pallets for a woodshed lean-to for extra wood storage space. I have not yet completed it. When I do, I will have a friend take a pic for you. I think it will be a good finished project. Looks good too.
A sawzall is your friend when making specific applications. There are tools made for tearing down pallets that work better than a crowbar and claw hammer. I suggest staining the pallets for longer wear before connecting them. After connecting them, it is much harder to get at all of the nooks & crannies.
My son worked for Harbor Freight tools for years and every truck night, I took a bunch home. Thanks Kane!!!
