    Clover.... I'm confused

    I would like to use clover as a cover crop near or in my chicken coop. Is the clover used as livestock feed and everything a different type from the stuff on the lawn? Do they both work? Are they both nutritious for chickens and rabbits?

    Winter Gardening

    Sorry if this is in the wrong forum. If it is I absolutely wouldn't mind if a staff member or whoever does that kind of stuff moves it. I recently read a book on winter gardening and am fascinated with this method (the book is "Backyard Winter Gardening" by Caleb Warnock)! I plan to start as...
