We've got a cover crop - grass. Haha. No but seriously, our back acreage is a dust crop in summer unless we leave the tall grasses there, and it keeps the ground cool. People think we need sheep but we say BAAA! to that - no cloven footed beasties will trample our earth! And the mice love it, and the hawks like the mice. As for the vegetable patches, we do what you do too, putting beans and peas and cereal grasses to regenerate the soil and then we cut and chop it in. Great post and informative.
