Thanks Simon – I will be using fully composted Cow manure from farms around my area. I’ve used it in other gardens and its worked out amazing in the 2nd and 3rd years. I do have to purchase it but it is about 1/2 the price of compost.

I plan to put the manure down over grass, cardboard – then about 2-3″ of compost on top of that to create my beds. I’m costal so if I can get my hands on seaweed that will be added to the manure as well.
