Cover Crops
Regenerate your garden's soil
Protect your garden
during fall and winter
Leaving your garden empty is very damaging for the soil and a missed opportunity to progress, very easily.
Healthy soil, healthy plants
Why is leaving your soil naked bad?
Leaving soil bare results in soil erosion, nutrient loss, weed invasion, and reduced water retention. This also harms soil structure and biodiversity.
Bare soil leads to a poorer harvest the year after, and more work to fix the situation.
How do cover crops work?
Cover crops are plants that you use to protect and improve your soil when you don't grow anything (generally in the fall / winter). They prevent soil erosion, add nutrients to the soil, and provide a home for helpful organisms.
1
August - October
Sow
Plant the seeds where your soil is empty.
2
Fall / Winter
Let them grow
The plants will grow and enrich the soil. Their roots will also loosen compact soils.
3
Spring
Cut and leave
Simply leave the plants on the ground so they return to the soil as nutrients. You can also burry them.
