This variety has been the standard of the industry for many years. It exhibits good winter hardiness, has moderate re-growth after cutting, is fine stemmed and has dark green leaves. Vernal alfalfa seeds are used mostly for hay production in medium rotation applications.

Buckwheat is a great cover crop which is often used for green manure.  Buckwheat has a short growing season maturing in 10 - 12 weeks.  It is often killed off by the first heavy frost.

Crimson Clover Dixie (Trifolium Incarnatum) - A winter annual, crimson clover is grown from bulk clover seeds from the Gulf Coast region to Southern Ohio clear to the West Coast. It is tolerant of medium soil acidity and will grow readily on both sandy and clay type soils. It is an important winter annual forage in the south, with growth continuing through the winter with the amount influenced by temperature.

Pollinator Wildflower Seed - Pollinators are probably the first beneficial insect that we think of. Without pollinators, our food resources would be drastically reduced. Pollination is required to produce seeds and fruit in up to 80 percent of the world's flowering plants, including 2/3 of the world's food plants. It would be difficult to imagine our food choices without food plants!

Red Clover (Trifolium Pratense) - Red clover is the most widely adapted of the true clovers. These short-lived perennial clover seeds are grown in Canada and most of the U.S. except the Great Plains states and the southwest. Mixes well with grass, used for hay, pasture, and soil improvement.

Sainfoin (Onobrychis Viciifolia) - A deep rooted perennial legume similar to alfalfa, but usually cut only once annually. The hay is very desirable. Can be grazed or pastured. Sainfoin is relished by wildlife, especially deer and elk. Prefers well drained soils. A prolific flower producer that is excellent for nectar and honey production and pollinators generally.

White Sweet Clover (Melilotus albus) - White Blossom Sweet Clover is a tap-rooted, biennial legume and a pollinator favorite. It grows best under cool, fertile, moist conditions and can be used for hay, grazing, and as abeneficial cover crop for fixing nitrogen. Its young leaves and flowers are eaten in salads or dried for teas, while the plant serves as a major nectar source for honey production.

Yellow Sweet Clover (Melilotus Officinalis) - Biennial sweet clover thrives under a wide range of soil and climatic conditions. However, it will not tolerate acid soils. It is drought resistant, winter-hardy and productive throughout all 50 states.
