there anything else I should do or use? Perhaps mushroom compost or worm

I'll just warn you that a lot of herbs are from the Mediterranean and prefer
poorer soils and not too much water. Any grey-leafed herb usually likes a dry
spot, so be conservative with the watering. Given the tight space I would
plant a variety of cherry tomato at one end of the bed -- they are happy to
droop on the ground around the bed and will bear very heavily.
