DIY Vine Trellis

Trellis for Raised Beds and Lighter Climbing Crops

This easy-to-build trellis is the perfect vertical support for lightweight climbing crops such as peas, pole beans, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, or annual vining flowers. Designed for versatility and ease of use, the kit includes hardware and netting—just add EMT conduit sourced locally.

Whether you’re growing in a raised bed, container garden, or field rows, this DIY trellis helps you maximize space and improve airflow around your crops. For heavier plants like slicing tomatoes, winter squash, or perennial vines, we recommend using our Heavy-Duty Trellis Kit.
