Frequently Asked Questions

Simple answers to help you grow with confidence.
🌱 How Much are does one bag cover?

Coverage depends on the product, planting goal, soil conditions, and how densely you choose to sow. Because every garden is different, we list a minimum coverage on every package to provide a reliable starting point.

πŸ“… When should I plant?

Planting windows are listed on every product page and are intended as a general guide. The best planting time depends on your local climate and growing season.

🌱 Farm Wisdom: Every garden grows on its own schedule. Use the planting windows as a guide and adjust for your local conditions.

Helpful Resources:

🌱 Find your USDA Hardiness Zone  

The USDA Hardiness Zone Map helps determine which plants are most likely to survive winter in your area.Β 

🌿 Do I need to till before planting?

Not always. Most Re-Fresh products can be broadcast onto prepared soil and lightly raked into the surface. Some gardeners also use no-till or low-till methods.

Always follow the planting instructions listed on each product page.

🌾 Do I need to remove my cover crop?

Yes. Most annual cover crops should be mowed, cut, or incorporated into the soil before they produce mature seed.

Allowing plants to fully mature and drop seed may result in volunteer plants growing where you don't expect them the following season.

🌱 Farm Wisdom: The goal is to feed your soil, not your weed bank. Terminate annual cover crops before mature seed develops for the best results.

πŸ’§ How often should I water?

Keep the soil consistently moist during germination and early establishment.

Once established, watering needs depend on rainfall, temperatures, soil type, and the product you've planted.

🌼 Will my cover crop come back every year?

It depends on the product.

Some Re-Fresh products contain annual species that naturally complete their life cycle in one season, while others include perennial species that may return year after year. Check the individual product page to learn what to expect.

🐝 Are Re-Fresh products safe for pollinators?

Absolutely. Many Re-Fresh products are specifically selected to improve soil while supporting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects that help gardens thrive.

πŸ“¦ How is my order shipped?

Orders are carefully packaged and shipped throughout the United States. You'll receive tracking information as soon as your order is on its way.

↩️ Can I return seed?
