This tour will explore all aspects of cover cropping on a diversified, transitioning-to-organic farm. Leon Vehaba, farm director of Titusville Farm, will discuss benefits of cover cropping in organic production systems (including erosion control, weed suppression, nitrogen fixation and soil health), different types of cover crops (warm and cool season, winter kill and overwintering), cover crop selection around cash crops, and cover crop termination.
