Nice! I just filled a few raised beds yesterday, I've got clay, silt, and shale in my yard. Got 2 yards of top soil, 1 yard of compost delivered for $165. Called three places for soil and it was half the price of any other shops and surprisingly clean. Hope you get good veg in yours.

Nice! I plan on tilling the existing loam/topsoil and adding some shittier stuff I’ve got a pile to get rid off. After that it should still take 6-8” of a 50/50 loam/compost mix. Its $50/yard, stuffs usually more expensive here though in Canada.
