Raised beds are good on your back. Also, remember you don't have to fill a high bed all the way up with dirt. I am partial to
Vegega beds. They are supposed to last 20 years, but I'l take 10 in the Florida sun.

That is a great illustration of how to build a raised bed the right way.
In the winter months, I toss compostables right on top of my raised beds. Even with snow and cold weather, most of it is broken down just by the sun, by spring.

Yah, I was thinking about my back too.
(I like that picture of the garden area, fenced with stone walking paths, and raised beds, but I would need to move to the country first!)
