So here's the Red Clover in winter. It is holding up pretty well - still green, still alive despite the snow. It is organic seed from High Mowing. Hopefully it is fixing nitrogen in the beds. One other benefit I forgot to mention earlier is that it reduces soil compaction that might be caused by precipitation. This stuff has been fine. It took about a pound to do about 6 beds. I reseeded a couple times when squirrels vandalized the seedlings. Next year, I will try something a little different - A Rye and Hairy Veitch mix from the Maine Potato Lady. I am hoping it will be a little tougher for squirrels to destroy it.
