Great work in Ballybeg Greens- Market Garden & Learning Hub

This time of year we are putting green manures into all the spaces in the garden that won't have crops in them over the winter. Nature doesn't like bare soil so a green manure is a plant or mix we set to cover the ground to keep the soil in good condition. Over the winter a green manure keeps roots in the soil which help the soil hold water better without getting waterlogged and compacted. It also helps suppress perennial weeds such as buttercups and docks which are much harder to manage in the spring. The green manure will be covered with plastic early in the spring to kill it offcans then dug back in to feed the soil for the coming season. We're covering the seed with fleece to keep the pidgeons off and for warmth overnight while the seed is germinating.
