It's hard to believe we're already past Labor Day! Flower fields across the state are packed with color as dahlias hit their peak production and fall blooms like celosia start to inch towards center stage. During crop transitions, or when preparing a planting bed for a different kind of production (transitioning between annual to perennial production, for example) short-season summer and fall cover crops can help keep the soil covered, anchored, and biologically active when a cash crop is absent.
