It’s not too late to incorporate crop rotation into your garden plans this year! 🌱 Did you know that this simple technique can improve soil health, prevent pests and diseases, and increase yields?

Here's how it works: the 4-year crop rotation system rotates different plant families yearly. Each plant family plays a unique role in your garden's ecosystem.

For example:

Year 1- Where you plant Fruits this year you will follow next year with...

Year 2- Root crops to break up the soil, followed by...

Year 3- Leaves to balance the ph, and finally...

Year 4- Legumes to fix nitrogen in the soil. Then back to fruits in year 5 to break pest cycles.

This way, you avoid planting the same crops in the same spot year after year, which can deplete nutrients and attract pests and diseases.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced gardener, crop rotation can benefit your plants and your garden's ecosystem! So why not give crop rotation a try and see the difference it makes in your garden? 🌻 Your plants will thank you, and so will your taste buds! πŸŒ±πŸ˜‹
