Trying something new this year. I put in a winter cover, crop of daikon, radishes, and Austrian winter peas. Yesterday I let the chickens go in the garden to kill off the winter, cover crop and turn anything they eat into manure. Once the chickens come out, the garden will have 30 to 45 days to rest and then I’ll transplant my starts and do my direct sewing. What do you think of this idea?
