Winter Garden Planting

Last week (11/5/10) I planted 4 items in our second raised bed.  They were  "Red Creole P.R.R. Onions, Early Jersey Wakefield Cabbage, Squirrel's Choice Olympia Hybrid Spinach, and Swiss Chard.  I was a little late doing this so I don't know what kind of yield I will get.  We'll wait and see.

Crimson Clover cover crop

I planted some Crimson Clover cover crop seeds in one of my raised beds a few days ago.  It is coming up quite nicely.  I will leave this bed unplanted through the winter in an attempt to replenish the nitrogen.
