Unpopular take: I pulled out my raised garden beds after 3 seasons
Everyone in my neighborhood group kept raving about raised beds, so I built four of them with cedar and filled them with premium soil. Three years of watering struggles and gopher damage later, I tore them out and planted straight into the ground with compost. The in-ground plants are doing twice as well with half the effort, so has anyone else gone backwards on this trend?

Did the gophers actually stop after you went in-ground, or just get easier to deal with?

Heard my buddy pulled his out too after raccoons kept digging under them every single night.
