From Chef Janie Pendelton, who produced this video:
"Have an old pallet laying around the yard? Here's a keen way to get good use out of it's framework. Two hours and you have a beautiful decorative garden that is edible too! WARNING: How to find and use the proper 'heat-treated' wood pallet; do not use 'chemically' treated wood pallets for indoor furniture, children's rooms, composting or for food growing; herbs, strawberries, etc... Use only 'untreated' or 'heat' treated pallets. First, Methyl Bromide (insecticide on wood shipping crates) was phased out as a fumitory chemical in 1995, but some of these pallets may still be around, so look for the symbol on crates. Most pallets in the USA have been heat-treated for foreign pests, the symbol is ``IPPC`` and are safe. Pallets used in foreign countries may still contain insecticides. Check your own countries codes for pallet uses. Thanks, and as always, be a safe gardener. Enjoy the video." -- Chef Janie
