Buckwheat cover crop

For the last few years we've been using cover crops when we have empty beds. This is Buckwheat that we broadcast onto this bed after we harvested our edamame.

I love this system. The Buckwheat acts a green manure. Saves us from having to haul compost to the beds.

In no-dig gardening, never leave soil bare! Keep it covered with crops or green manures like crimson clover in spring or winter field beans in autumn. After growth, chop & drop as mulch. This feeds soil life, suppresses weeds & protects structure. 🌱 #NoDig #GreenManure #SoilHealth

Happy Easter! To those who celebrate

Rabbits or hares, we see them everywhere! But have you considered adding them to the homestead? 🐰🥬
