Alright K, here is what Im thinking....
White oak for the boards. I know a guy north of me who will sell it to me for half the cost of cedar. Its a pretty hearty wood and I think it will work. Plus its half the cost.
For the soil. I called a guy south of me and he will sell me a dirt, peat, and manure mix for $21 cu. yd, which includes tax. I will get probably two cu yds of it for my 6 3x3 boxes.
What do you think?

I cant find anywhere around me that sells loam. That is very disconcerting.
How much mulch did you need for that setup?

Yeah, pretty much everything else will do fine in 6 inch bed, except for potatoes but I do those in tires

no one around you hauls top soil? We used 3 or 4 yards of mulch around the beds.
