We're going to have a fairly small vegetable garden this year, a few tomatoes, a few herbs and that's about it.

The area where we normally do tomatoes hasn't produced well the last year, though a fair part of that was probably weather-related, so we're going to put a cover crop in it this year, or maybe two of them--buckwheat now (if I can find seed locally or get around to ordering it online) and alfalfa later on. Both would be tilled under before they go to seed.

Buckwheat helps extract phosphorus from the soil, alfalfa rebuilds nitrogen.
