    We love using high diversity mix

    We love using high diversity mix to build new soil and condition existing soil. We use it for green manure or to add green elements to our compost piles. We have gotten this mix several times and will order again. Green cover has great mixes. I love the fact that they are preinnoculated. Sometimes, we will combine several different mixes to push our diversity even further.

    From hard clay to gorgeous hay!

    we live in zone 8B Western Washington, where the soil is excellent if you like hard pack clay. The high diversity mix is truly amazing at turning around the quality in greatly improving the fertility of our soil. We have three seasons of good solid growth and flowers to attract the pollinators, and as bonus plenty of high-quality high protein forage for our pigs and chickens . After two years we now grow all crops without any fertilizer or pesticides. The big pressure is minimal and the produce is excellent. Simply put I couldn’t be happier!

    Cover crop and wildlife planting

    Planted High Diversity Mix last week in April here in Eastern New Mexico on a 1 acer plot for cover and wildlife plot. I have some morning glory to deal with so I double drilled it and irrigated it with about 1inch of water and have received over and inch of rain on it. this stuff is beautiful. I well plant it again lol but will not double drill it again my bad .
    I have already noted deer coming in and Quail
    I hope to get the local NRCS employees come out and see what they can identify. I think everything I planted is coming up
    Regards
