Organic Peaceful Valley Budget Soil Builder Mix - Raw Seed (lb)

Organic Peaceful Valley Budget Soil Builder Mix provides a cost-conscious route to certified-organic cool-season coverage, nitrogen fixation, and green manure. The mixture combines organic legumes with organic cereal grains, creating a stand that establishes at several levels rather than relying on one species to perform every job.

Field peas, vetch, and Bell Beans contribute nitrogen-rich growth and larger roots. White oats and barley add rapid early coverage, fibrous roots, and carbon-rich residue that balances the softer legume material. Together, the components compete with weeds, protect soil through wet weather, and produce a varied supply of organic matter. The exact combination may change with seed availability, so customers should use the ingredient statement for the current lot when planning rotations or livestock use.

Seed in September or October in most regions. Coastal locations and other cool-summer climates may also support spring planting. This is a raw-seed blend, so inoculate before planting to help the legumes form effective nodules. For green manure, mow or incorporate before mature seed develops and while the stems remain manageable. If the stand is allowed to become tall and coarse, provide additional time for the cereal residue to begin decomposing before the next crop is planted.
