RE: layered bed


If you don't mind waiting about 6 months:

yard debris (not too woody), cardboard of very thick layers of newspaper,
then yard debris.  I top off with compost to get things going.

If you're in a hurry:  compost/cardboard/compost.

For mine is just a little old fashioned garden where the 
flowers come together to praise the Lord and teach all 
who look upon them to do likewise.
