Front Yard Vegetable Garden - path material?

Long time lurker, first time caller...big thanks to all the site contributors.

The Mrs. and I have been talked about a front yard vegetable garden for some time. Spent the last few days cutting and rolling sod/weeds and rototilling any remnants into oblivion...good times.

The current plan is garden boxes with re-purposed cinder blocks from the back yard with some wood trim on top to dress it up.

We're leaning towards covering the remaining area/paths in DG with the possibility of some stepping stones to break things up. Few questions for you gurus:

Should I go landscape fabric straight to DG or is an initial layer of road base recommended?

Is road base safe surrounding an "organic" vegetable garden?

Open to any other ideas or suggestions you may have.

Many thanks,

Mark
