About Perth Wicking Beds
Our Mission
Supporting community connections via educational programs and workshops, challenging social norms with urban street veggie gardens and aiding the movement of understanding that health and self sufficiency is grown at home and to do so providing an inexpensive and sustainable means to achieve this through water wise wicking beds.
Why Wicking Beds
Wicking beds (like permaculture) are an Australian invention. They are designed for growing veggies in harsh Australian environments and are absolutely perfect for W.A. with our sandy soil and hot climate. They water themselves from the internal water reservoir resulting in less evaporation and a water efficiency up to 70% greater than retic or hand watering. Depending on design and produce growing, days if not weeks between watering can be achieved.
Our Services
We supply wicking bed kits, full installations of beds and even workshops if you have an event. We predominantly use IBC's for our beds as they are strong and we love the idea of sustainable repurposing of products. Our IBC's are food grade, washed and previously used holding non toxic products. We can also clad the beds for a unique one of a kind design with 100% recycled pallet or colourbond bed with all the trimmings
we save from entering landfill.
