Gardening folks, how to revive old soil?

I built a raised garden box (16" tall and about 4'x8') for a renter about 5-10 years ago, she used it to grow vegetables.

She move out and the next renters had no interest in it.

We have tried to grow a few vegetables but they just start and die. I presume all the nutrients have leached out.

All I can think of is to throw some manure on there and mix it up but I sense there may be more to reviving the old soil.

I know we have some gardeners here so any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!
