Build healthier soil the natural way with Hairy Vetch, one of the best cover crops for the home garden. This hardy and vigorous legume is a nitrogen-fixing powerhouse, capturing nitrogen from the air and adding it to your soil for your next crop of heavy-feeding vegetables. Its dense, vining growth smothers weeds and protects soil from erosion. In the spring, it produces a beautiful display of delicate purple flowers that are a favorite of bees, before being tilled in as a nutrient-rich "green manure."
