Beginning my first garden--HELP!

Hi All,

Can you check my research? I live in Zone 6. I'm building 4 4X6' raised beds (will take recommendations on materials and soil). I may not plant all right away, but want to get the layout down. My garden will be South-facing (one section is slightly shadier than the other). I want to begin with tomatoes, peppers (green, red, jalapeno, etc.) and maybe cucumbers.

A) Can I/Should I grow these all in the same 4X6' bed?
B) Are these good "starter" veggies (I'm a first-timer)? Or is this plan too ambitious or too safe?
C) What--if any--berries are great for this region?

I'm happy to receive feedback on anything I've missed and/or just beginner tips. Many, many thanks! I'm so excited to begin my first garden!!

Nicole
