Tonya, if you don't have a soil test kit, you might think about getting one. If you don't want to bother with one, take a soil sample to your local extension office (usually listed in the phone book under court house offices) & let them test it for you. Once they find out what your soil has (& doesn't have) they'll be able to tell you what you should do to ammend it according to what you're planning to plant.
As for the consistency of veggie garden soil, I'd actually welcome sand in mine, as there is a lot of clay in the soil here. (My Beets & Carrots would love to have a lighter soil that they could send their roots down into!) Longy's suggestion of setting up your own composting system is an excellent one, cuz you'd have a good consistency AND nitrition for your plants!
