I Can't Believe It's Fall

We're proud to say we're one of the very few gardens that are still full of produce with Halloween less than two days away. Behind the first bed of savoy cabbage is one of our beds that's already been put into cover crop. We sowed winter rye and hairy vetch together in the field crop area and in all beds as they come out of production. This puts nitrogen ito the soil (the vetch is a legume), prevents errosion over the winter, breaks up the soil via root action and gives us lots of biomass in the spring with which to make compost.
 
Kids made their own garden tags for their own raised bed gardens. Notice the new cultivar - "Rabish".
