Expanding the garden for more organic plants

Recently I expanded the garden area by our pepper plants and grapevines. I think it created another 40 feet of growing space. I dug down about 18" and back filled with home made compost, alfalfa hay, bone meal, blood meal as well as native soil. I also added corn meal to feed the beneficial microbes in the soil.

I now have three different varieties of potatoes, many shallots, onions, garlic, two types of green beans, herbs, carrots, snap peas and a few other that I can't remember right now.
