New garden bed

I decided to increase the size of my garden this year and plan to construct additional beds. I am also reseeding my lawn this year, so I ordered some extra dirt for the garden. I am experimenting with a 30 inch wide bed this year, which will make it easier to reach my plants, than my 5 foot wide bed. I got some 12" x 8" x 16 foot boards at Home Depot for $7.50 each and will be using them for the frame. Here is the empty bed, with my newly seeded lawn behind it.


I filled the bed with loam and raked in a bag of peat moss to add some organic matter.
