Abstract: A raised border system is disclosed. The system includes one or more brackets that secures at least one beam in position using at least one anchor stake to create a variety of edging systems. The brackets include nubs that can be inserted into the brackets without the use of tools and are sized and shaped to securely engage a beam in a manner such that the force required to assemble the beams is relatively small and is well exceeded by the force required to disengage the beam from the bracket. While the nubs obviate the need for traditional fasteners or tools, the border system is still compatible with traditional fasteners affording the user a wide variety of options during construction. The system is also universally compatible with a variety of beam materials and sizes.

Abstract: A grow light support system for use with a raised border system includes components for forming a tension cord network that is suspended over the raised bed border system and includes a grow light unit that is suspended on the tension cord network. The grow light unit is configured such that the grow light can be positioned and locked in place at a predetermined location of the tension cord network and is configured such that the distance between the grow light and the tension cord network can be varied, thereby changing the height at which the grow light is positioned relative to the ground.

Abstract: The invention provides a simple device for providing vertical support of vegetable plants, thereby eliminating the conventional problems routinely associated with home gardening. In particular, the device provides a maintenance free, vertical support frame assembly of adjustable height to which is attached a mesh netting and supporting stakes, forming an extendable garden trellis. Growing plants may be attached to the gardening trellis, thereby allowing maximum upward growth of the plants while also elevating the plants.

Abstract: A support bracket and stake are provided which can be used for edging gardens and lawns or for the formation of retaining walls. Used together, the bracket and stake provide a means to support and anchor lengths of lumber to the ground to create a variety of edging systems. In particular, the stakes provide a means to attach the system securely to the ground surface, while the support bracket has a beam receiving portion to support a variety of different types of lumber frequently used in edging. A mounting column on the support bracket provides a means to secure the support bracket to the stakes such that the support bracket may freely rotate 360° perpendicular to the vertical axis of the stake. The stakes may be vertically engaged one upon and inside the other to provide a raised border system of various height.
