Redoing my no dig garden

(encino, ca)

I made the no dig garden last spring and it was very successful. Any suggestions on what i need to do to redo this spring's no dig garden. I ask because my current 5ft by 10ft patch is loaded with earthworms, which i do not want to lose. Can i re-use this soil mixture?

Of course you can use the original bed just keep adding organic matter and keep turning the bed between plantings. try to change the type of plants you grow in the same spot so as to prevent any possible build up of plant disease. Also try to rotate above and below ground plantings.ie potatoes onions carrots etcetera below. broccoli celery lettuce etcetera above.
Happy and fruitful gardening Bill T. :)
