I am not sure what equipment you have to work with there. Tractor,tiller
or
what ever. There are numourous ways to build beds. I have built many abed with
just a gardening fork and a rake. The bigger trybuilt tillers accept a broad
point attachment that comes with sweep boards that will lay up a bed in
notheing flat once the ground is tilled.
