How to Improve Soil and Build an In-Ground Garden Bed

The soil at my new house is GOOD, but compact and high in clay content. To get it to grow anything, I tilled up about 4-5", mixed in various sources of compost, biochar, and mycorrhizal fungi, and then topped it off with a few bags of high quality soil mix.

Beds can be about 30"-48" wide in ground to account for workability. Make sure you water in well and lay down some mulch after planting.

This is one of the easier ways to get a garden started if you have the space for it, as you're using your own native soil to form the bed, saving you money.
