I raised this question a few weeks ago and was told (think it was Pigletwillie) that the constituent mix of what ever they use to tanalise changed about 10 years ago and is now fine. My concern is that we built our raised beds almost that long ago and could have had old stock wood which could mean that it contains the nasties. The GYO article seemed to indicate that I could dig out the soil and line the wood rather than rebuild but this would be quite a major activity as they are deep beds so I'm not too sure what to do although will be planting further away from the edges this summer.

Which one are you and is it how you want to be?
