Landscape Fabric- Raised Vegetable Garden

I'm making a raised garden with a cinder block perimeter 1 block high. After removing the existing grass should I put a landscape fabric barrier before my Black Kow manure and compost or will it hinder root growth? I will plant tomato, cucumber, jalapeno peppers etc.

usually just some cardboard boxes then dump the dirt on top

Ended up reading about this and went that route. I have a big trash can that I've been piling in pine clippings and straw from my chicken run and coop. It was full of chicken shite obviously so i piled about 8 inches of that and I will pile cheap soil mix then my good Black Kow on top of that. Should work pretty well.

Cardboard , then sticks and debris from the yard, banana peels, egg shells, and other compost stuff then topped with sand, mushroom compost, lots of soil, worm castings, vermiculite, peat moss, fertilizer. Top layer is gardenstraw bought online
