I would encourage you to make your vegetable garden close to the house and near the kitchen door. You want it easy to get to for repeated forays and close to a water supply. The mulch (lasagna) method is a good one, but you don't have to wait until next year - you can plant right thru the mulch for fall crops. Since you have lots of sun, you should be able to do that. The nice thing about gardening is that you can always add to it if you have the space. You might consider adding a little to the beds for a border of a few herbs that help discourage insects and encourage the good insects (sage, chives, marigolds, parsley, etc.).

I have tons of bunnies but little problem with them in my vegetable garden. I suspect it is because what passes for my lawn is full of clover and other bunny friendly weeds and there is a cat or two patrolling the garden. Mine started as a patch but I made brick paths and borders 3 years ago.
