Another chapter to this ongoing project is getting the veggie garden up to its full productive potential. This meant tending to the soil quality by amending it appropriately along with planting a specialized, nutrient dense cover crop blend. Cover cropping is an excellent way to enrich your soil over the fall, winter and spring. They can be tilled into your soil come spring, composted, or chopped and dropped at soil level for mulching. There are at least 8 great reasons to cover crop. Come early summer, we are expecting a high yield of second generation SOLscapes grown organic garlic. How neat is that?
