Hello

At Winters Garden Beds, our goal is to make gardening more accessible to Nova Scotians and to promote growing organic food. We achieve this by delivering beautiful, built-to-last raised garden beds across Nova Scotia at fair pricing & affordable delivery.

Winters Garden Beds was founded by 24 year old Daniel Winters, born in Truro NS and raised in Halifax NS. Daniel recently graduated with an undergrad in Physics from St. FX University (2021), a master's degree in Mathematics from University of Waterloo (2023), and is now pursuing a career opportunity in New York City as of March 2024.

Our Wood

We use locally sourced 2" thick planed Spruce lumber which is un-treated to build our sturdy Raised Beds.

- Un-treated wood is ideal for vegetable growing, as there are no harsh chemicals that leech into your food.

- 2" thick wood will hold up much longer than e-commerce and department store 1" thick wood alternatives. Thinner boards will bend and bow outwards once filled with soil and rot quicker.

- We buy from saw mills that practice sustained multiple use of our Nova Scotia woodlands.

Nova Scotian 2" Planed Spruce

- Durable

- Easy to stain

- Great cost effective lumber 

- Smooth dressed finish

- Most abundant lumber species in Nova Scotia

- 2" thick planed lumber

Our Origin

In March 2020, Daniel came home early from university due to the first wave of Covid-19 in Nova Scotia. Their father had a small garden where they had been growing tomatoes and other veggies each year. This year, with the extra time on hand, and with the thought that food scarcity may become more prominent in the future, they decided to expand their hobby of gardening by building 8 raised garden beds for their backyard. After seeing their backyard, family members began expressing interest in having garden beds built for them. Through discovering first-hand how easy and convenient it is to begin a garden anywhere through the use of raised garden beds, and having fun building them, Daniel built garden beds for his family members, which followed with posting advertisements online. This hobby quickly grew into the formation of Winters Garden Beds. This first season was entirely based within Halifax NS, but our team now delivers products throughout the entire province of Nova Scotia.
