This is what I used around my garden where I have raised beds. We're in the country so we used what we had a lot of, which is trees.

We just use large rocks to create borders around our gardens.
Small pavers work great, too!
We use garden blocks glued together with PL Premium for a nice sturdy wall that will last forever.
Using a square shovel, or edging spade, create a natural edge that is about 2 inches deep around the beds. When you mow, you can zip around the beds. Zero cost, unless you don't have a shovel or spade.
