Looking for a barrier to wind-borne weeds

We want to set up some a new raised bed vegetable garden next year. We�ll be using 10-12" deep boxes. The site will be close to a prairie restoration area that has some pretty stiff winds. Last year a lot of wind-borne weed seeds were blown into the veggie garden. So we�re looking for ideas about weed barriers. Should we use black plastic, natural, a combination, can we use black plastic mulch to warm the soil and also as a weed guard for windblown seeds?
