Thinking Ahead

As we harvest our Garden Produce this Season, we begin thinking ahead for Garden 2010. What is the best rotation which will have the greatest support for the Plants we will be growing in the years ahead? A cursory read of Rodale's Illustrated Encyclopedia of Organic Garden (2005) gives some Food for Thought:

Rich Fertile Soil (example: Winter Rye Green Manure)>Potatoes>Legumes>Brassica Family

We have so much to learn. "Rotation" will surely be in the mix for reading over the coming Winter Season. With the right touch, the Gardens of the following years will surely smile.
