After getting my garden picked, cleaned and turned I planted 3-pounds of Winter Rye. With the mild, rainy weather we've had the past week it's already starting to sprout.
In case you're curious - "Winter rye is a cereal grain that's typically planted in fall in vegetable gardens as a cover crop. Having a thick ground cover also helps prevent soil erosion over winter and loss of nutrients from exposed soil. Winter rye is a deep-rooted plant."
