Hi Michigan Organic Farmers, (transitioning and certified)
Im trying to get a feel for interest in cover crop mixes on farm. Im writing a grant to study mixes vs solo cover crops and wonder if you can shed some light, being YOU do the work and YOU see the results on your farms!

Have you ever tried growing more than one cover crop together? 
Did it work? 
What were the mixes?
What did you notice?

OR

If you have not tried growing more than one cover crop together (mixing seed and growing at the same time)  would you consider this approach?
What would be the goals you would seek when using a mix of cover crops?


You answers will be kept confidential and I will not attach your name to your responses. This is purely to get a sense of what Michigan Organic Farmers are interested in trying to help improve their crops and soil
Thanks very much
Vicki
