The Birdies Original Raised Corrugated Garden Bed was created by Simon Bird in 2007 after noticing farmers using old corrugated water tanks as garden beds. After receiving positive feedback at Garden Expos, Simon Bird and Neill Bosch decided to start manufacturing the beds themselves in 2008. They rented a 160-square-meter premise and purchased machinery for in-house manufacture.

In 2009, the All-New Birdies Original Modular Raised Garden Bed prototype was manufactured. Innovation has been the key to the success of the Birdies Brand, which now offers more than 1000 SKUs in raised garden beds, with the kit form being the basis of most of the products marketed and manufactured by Birdies.
