@the_farm_grind: What we actually planted: vetch, stooling rye, and turnips.

If you ever need vetch seed. I produce a lot. Great for soil but a bugger to get through your combine and into the tank.

Its so refreshing to see commercial farmers embrace natural processes to keep their soil fertile instead of just spraying on abnormal amounts of fertiliser and chemicals.
