The Land # 3 - Green Manure

In the pig's former area, I planted a 'green-manure mega-mix' about 3 weeks ago, consisting of :

• Mustard
• Rye Grass
• Alfalfa

I mixed approximately equal quantities of each seed together and hand broadcast it over the pig's area. 

Within a few days the area resembled the 'mustard & cress' of childhood memory!  Now, 3 weeks it's starting to grow nicely.  I've clearly missed some areas, and I'm pretty sure it's only the mustard which is growing (I will update as things progress!), and that's one of the brilliant things about learning!
