Summer Mixes
Our Spring and Summer Mix options have a variety species, each selected for their role in enriching organic matter and suppressing unwanted vegetation, consisting of legumes, grasses, brassicas, and broadleaf plants, all working together to cultivate and maintain healthy soil. Legumes play a crucial role by fixing atmospheric nitrogen, making it accessible to neighbouring plants, while the extensive root systems of grasses enhance soil structure and promote water absorption. Brassicas act as bioaccumulators, retrieving nutrients that would otherwise be out of reach, and the deep roots of broadleaf species alleviate soil compaction and invite beneficial insects with their blooms. This multifaceted mix forms a dense canopy that naturally outcompetes weeds, ensuring that your fields remain pristine for subsequent planting.
For those aiming to boost their soil's vitality, and feed livestock, these mixes are your ideal choice.
