Covid lock downs were a wonderful thing for me. It gave me the time to put in a bunch of beds and bring in some decent soil. Theystill didn't produce a ton (partially due to our bad weather and short growing season). I got rabbits last year and started dumping their bedding directly on the beds and got better results than ever before.

I'm planning on building a pseudo Johnson-Su compost reactor to mix the bunny bedding, kitchen scraps, garden scraps, and wood chips from our wood splitting/firewood cutting area. I'm hoping to up the garden even more, but the composter will take a good year to produce the high quality compost I'm hoping to add. I've also been adding some small quantities of some amendments -- worm castings, azomite, and green sand to my beds to hopefully improve things even more. I'm loving it.

I've attached a picture of building our biggest, fanciest bed and some of the stuff grown in it the past 2 years. My newer beds, built a year or 2 later, haven't produced as well. I'm still building fertility in them and optimizing the automated watering.
