FIELDWORK UPDATE: The cover crops at Auburn’s Transformation Garden are showing off again this season. Sunn Hemp is in the legume family, builds biomass and fixes nitrogen, and was seeded (via seed-drill) in mid-June. For the most part, it has grown to over 6’ tall, except for where it hasn’t. It’s bald spots are doing a great job revealing where the soils are most degraded. Thank you Audrey Gamble for continuing to coordinate the cover crop rotation.
