Raised beds and containers

i have got some raised beds out in my garden too 1m sq and about a 1ft high..any help as to what i can grow in these. i also made some containers out of really strong wire mesh fencing i had, bent them in circles and covered outside with tarpauline and inside with tough plastic with holes in the bottom.
I was thinking of caulis, brocoloi, carrots, runner beans each to a bed and then potatoes in the containers???

First of all with the space available, think about the things you like first, then work out your spacings.  There are loads of square foot gardening articles on the internet,  here is one which gives you an idea of what will go into each square foot of space.

Things like caulis need a lot of room unless you go for the mini types.  I grew minicole cabbages last year for the first time, and they were lovely.  Really tight balls of cabbage.  one of them lasted 2 of us 2 days.

Here's the one I was thinking of first.

The general advice is not to manure where carrots / parsnips are to go, although some members report that they don't have a problem if they do do so.
