Grains

Grains and cover crops include many different plant species. Whether grown for soil improvement (hairy vetch, winter peas, rape), or to harvest for use as grain(rice, millet, quinoa, flax, chuffa),in the home garden they tend to be sown on a larger scale than many vegetable types. Some crops, like buckwheat or sesame, are used both ways!
