HI Wendy!
I’m going to open up the seat for questions.
@DayOneWellness welcome!
are you in IL?
@reneebaude Yep. Just north of Chicago, in Skokie, Il
I’m in Mundelein/Libertyville!
I want to do a cover crop in my lawn.

Plus it sounds like a cool ground cover.
I’m not eating my cover crop yes or no?
@reneebaude I’ll have them answer in a moment. Thanks for the questions.
@reneebaude I was curious too since they said radish.
…radish as a cover crop.
Gorilla Gardening!
@xperientialEd I just read about planting in pairs like asparagus and parsley. I have a edible landscape that is pretty cool.
@reneebaude That sounds so cool. I know @ggKeelerG has mentioned partner plants for decorative plants. Hadn’t heard of that for edible.
White turnip.

@xperientialEd I use strawberries as ground cover.

@reneebaude We tried strawberries, unfortunately great ground cover but no berries. I transplanted them from a friend and they just didn’t like our soil.
wow! I’m trying to get my local HS to start a community garden.
@xperientialEd bummer. for us it depends on heat and water. They get neglected.
