Hi there, Great tips by the way and thank you.
I did have a question though. I’m hoping you can answer it for me since you seem to
be pretty knowledgeable about gardening. What kind of soil should I put in my raised garden beds?
If you had some insight I would greatly appreciate it.
Compost, organic matter – not top soil
