Hey there nature lovers, in today's video I share my top 3 reasons why I regret buying metal raised garden beds. I have my permaculture design certificate and a masters degree in sustainability and I still got sucked into the raised metal bed trend. As this channel is all about my eco endeavour and sharing best practices when it comes to permaculture and sustainable living, I figured I'd make a video offering up a different perspective for you to consider before you spend your hard earned cash on an expensive metal raised garden beds.
Almost ALL of the youtube videos about metal raised beds are giving you a biased opinion because the youtubers sharing that information are trying to sell you metal raised beds through affiliate programs, meaning they get money if you buy the raised beds through their link after their reviews.
I'm not against affiliate programs because I do think they are a great way to share the wealth. But I do believe that an unbiased perspective should be shared, and the influencers pushing consumerism through affiliate marketing are not sharing an unbiased opinion.
In my humble opinion, I believe influencers have a responsibility to be mindful of the environmental, social, and economical impacts of the products they are influencing others to buy.
I hope this information in this video can help you decide if buying a raised metal garden bed is the best choice for you.
