One benefit of Raised Bed Garden is it avoids Root Run from Larger Plants and Trees. In raised beds, tree roots generally grow downwards and will not reach into the raised beds.
Another benefit is Raised Bed Gardens are more effective in pest control. Creepy crawlies are true to their description, they usually enter vegetable patches this way, crawling away until they find food. Encountering an obstacle like a solid frame will definitely deter some of them from crawling up. They may pick the easier option of continuing along the ground.
Overall, it will be easier to rid your beds of the various offenders just because they are more accessible. Applying chemical or natural pesticides or picking out invaders by hand is a lot less cumbersome if you do not have to bend down to ground level all the time. Everything, including nasty pests, will be more visible too. Remember, the sooner you tackle any pests, the easier it will be to rid your vegetable garden of them.
