Will my garden be affected by CCA-treated wood around it?CCA-treated wood used to fence gardens is not a significant source of arsenic. When soil is turned over in the garden, any arsenic that has leached into the soil is diluted. Research shows that plants absorb arsenic in small amounts.

Did you see this? Other treated wood products are now also available on the market (e.g., ACQ – Alkaline Copper Quaternary wood preservative). They too have a greenish tint which fades over time.
