Good plan, Bobert. I find Sheet Composting/Lasagna Gardening an excellent way to make a new garden, and have used it many times over the years...long before it became known by that name. You can fine tune the soil mix and amendments for particular crops. FEDCO Trees in Maine uses a similar procedure to prepare for planting fruit trees. I suggest you build the new garden layers now for planting next spring.
