Don’t Leave Your Garden Beds Bare! 🌱 My Easy Fall Cover Crop Guide
As the summer garden starts winding down, it can be tempting to just clean everything out and leave those beds empty until spring… but there’s a better way. 🌿
I put together this new Growers Circle printable to make fall cover crops feel simple and doable.
Inside, I go over a few easy choices like oats, cereal rye, crimson clover, and peas, plus when to sow them, how to plant them, what happens over winter, and what to do with everything when spring rolls around.
Cover crops can help protect your soil, hold nutrients, suppress weeds, and add organic matter while the garden is “resting.” And the best part is, you don’t need to make it complicated.
I love the idea of letting the garden keep doing a little work for us even after the main season is over. ❤️
Print this one out, tuck it into your garden notes, and use it when you start clearing those summer beds.
Happy growing,
Katy 🌿
