    Fantastic germination!

    Everything I've purchased from Green Cover has germinated beautifully.

    More than that, I'm so grateful they sell small amounts of their fantastic seed so I (a home gardener) can work on regenerating my small patch of soil, with the added benefit of harvesting some healthy foods for my family.

    Since our leaders aren't so interested in soil regeneration for healthy food and fodder, we'll need to do it ourselves. Thank you, Green Cover for making it possible!
