Very good quality seed at a great price, picked up at the store front and all the people were very friendly and helpful. I would give this product 5 stars but the seeds have just started sprouting so it is too early to say the quality of the plants.

This is a great cover crop to break up hard soils. It also turns out to be awesome chicken fodder! My chickens love the greens and if you let it go to seed it makes seed pods that the chickens love to eat. Leave the root in the ground and it will rot and add lighter material to your soil.
