This is what I am thinking of putting in for over-winter. Will then turn in for green manure:
Cold Grazer Rye grows quickly to produce a garden cover crop; starts growing 30 days earlier than wheat for spring garden plow down.
Winter Peas- legume will climb the rye stalk. An excellent source of Nitrogen
Crimson Clover- an annual clover provides beautiful crimson blooms and produces Nitrogen to be added back into the soil
Purple Top Turnips- add organic matter to the soil, or may be eaten.
Driller-Type Radishes- Grow deep to break up clay soils and acts as a collector and storehouse for Nitrogen
