Here's my garden located in Atlanta, GA. It consists of 3 raised vegetable garden beds following square foot gardening principals made popular by Mel Bartholomew. The soil is a third vermiculite, a third peat moss, and the last third is a combination of cow/chicken manure along with mushroom and pecan tree compost. Organic homemade compost was also administered to all seedlings when transplanted from seedling pots. All these plants were grown from seed. Here's some great gardening links I use often.
