The Mezza 6x6 Keyhole Composting Garden is crafted from beautiful, sustainably sourced FSC cedar and inspired by the African keyhole gardening technique. It’s an ingenious system that lets you compost household waste and grow fresh, organic vegetables in the same garden. A central compost basket is used in the Keyhole Garden to place your daily kitchen scraps conveniently. This household waste is then organically transformed into nutrient-rich soil that nourishes your vegetables. Compost-fed soil better holds moisture and nutrients while using up to 70% less water. Mezza cedar boards are treated with a warm, distinctive water-based stain that makes them safe for the environment and ensures healthy, safe food production. Cedar contains natural preservatives that help it resist insects and decay. Boards slide into posts easily and conveniently without needing tools or screws. Our innovative posts make for perfectly modular beds, allowing you to design and configure your unique garden layout and size. Mezza embraces the timelessness of wood with a modern minimalist design.
Tools Required: A hammer is required to secure posts into the ground. Please note this product has no bottom floor
Approx. Time Commitment: 2 people, 1.5 Hours (additional time required for filling garden)
Inspired to Give Back
We stumbled upon the Keyhole Garden concept while researching organic gardening methods. This inspired us to create our series of garden beds using this African gardening technique. This idea was gifted to us by the African people and so we felt compelled to give back.
Thrive is a charity determined to end malnutrition in our lifetime. They empower communities with the training and simple tools needed to sustainably grow an abundance of healthy, organic, disease-fighting foods for life—Vita partners with Thrive by financially supporting programs in Africa and around the world.

This is a great raised garden bed. I got two of them and they take up half of my 13’x13’ garden nicely. They are made of treated cedar wood so I think they will hold up for years and they have a nice darker color than most garden boxes do, which looks really nice in the yard. Pretty easy to assemble, too!. Page. Fanwood, NJ. 2021-10-18 15:02:16
