We look to red clover as a threefold plant ally: As a nourishing alterative plant that can support healthy aging and menopause when taken as a tea or infusion. As a nitrogen-fixing cover crop that's great for heavy clay soils As a green mulch: blocking weeds, holding in moisture, and breaking down into nutrient-rich organic matter to add to soil.  Red clover blossoms are rose to magenta colored with two trifoliate leaves (three leaflets each) below. Stems can grow up to 4 feet long, spreading from one central base.The root is a deep tap root with symbiotic bacteria called rhizobia that can pull nitrogen from the air and make it usable to the plant, storing it in root nodules and enriching the soil. These seeds are treated with rhizobium inoculant in order to spur nodulation. Approximately 100 seeds, harvested for 2023. Grown using only compost, water, & organic fertilizer, our plants are never treated or sprayed with anything at all.    Lifecycle: Biennial or short-lived perennia
