Living with back pain doesn't mean you have to give up on urban gardening. The key is finding raised planter boxes designed for easy access and ergonomic comfort. Ideally, look for planters with a height between 24 to 36 inches (60-90 cm), which allows you to tend to your plants while standing or sitting without excessive bending. Consider "waist-high" or "tabletop" models that bring the garden to you. For even greater accessibility, explore planters with built-in ledges for sitting or those designed to be compatible with wheelchair use. Materials like lightweight, durable cedar or composite are excellent choices. Additionally, self-watering systems and long-handled tools can further reduce strain. By prioritizing these accessible features, you can create a thriving, beautiful garden that cares for your back as much as you care for your plants.
