Good morning,

Would you please tell me what is the the best soil to use in box gardens to grow organic vegetables.

Thanks for contacting the Toronto Master Gardeners.

A simple mixture of triple mix plus compost – both readily available at garden centres – will work very well in your raised vegetable beds.
