At the back of our lot is a large retaining wall that is made of creosote rail ties. This location is also the best site for a vegetable garden. Unfortunately, there is no way to remove the railway ties so we need to work around them. Our plan is to build the garden two feet out from the wall and seperate it with an impermeable cloth of some sort. Does anyone have any further suggestions or recommendations for working around this problem?
How close can a vegetable garden safely be planted from a creosote retaining wall?
Sounds like you're well on your way to having a nice garden. 24 to 30 inches is good idea and possibly building a trench to carry the run off from wall down and away from garden so the rain water won't get into your garden. Good luck with garden.
