g'day hope,

reckon i'd be getting some mushroom compost and adding it in as i go
get it from the farm or partly decomposed from some landscape centres.

aalso add anything like vegetable scraps and shredded pruning as you
go, you will need plenty of organic matter like the mushy and sredding
eetc.,. to keep the worms going. now having said all that the worms
aren't at their best in winter they tend to hyberbate a bit.

but if you sort of rough mix the dirt etc as you go that stuff will
break down by itself anyway, keep it covered with a good layer of
mulch hay, lift the hay each time you want to add more.

other things to consider cow, horse, sheep manure all will go to help.
