Black Beans

We have 40 acres of black beans and over half of the beans will be no-till.

Winter Wheat

Winter wheat is planted in the fall and harvested in July of the following year.

Mixed Cover Crop

Cover crops are planted for the purpose of suppressing weeds, improving soil health, reducing the need for fertilizer inputs, and breaking up compaction.  They also protect the soil from wind and water erosion.  Red clover, buckwheat, timothy, alfalfa, rye, oats, and many others are all part of the farm’s carefully planned rotation.

Summer Cover Crop

The Cover Crop Mix includes cow peas, sorghum, buckwheat, and sun hemp. This versatile mix can either be left to winterkill and stand over the winter, or get rolled and crimped in the fall before no-tilling winter grains.
