Assuming the ground in Sayward is going to be disturbed in roughly mid-May to very early June, I'm sorting out what I want to get into that raw soil. Frost-free season will likely be from planting time to late Sept, which is 122 days, though most maps add another month onto that in the actual valley (Campbell River is a big, close town but it's at higher elevation so it gets cold a month earlier apparently and many Sayward estimates just borrow from that). I also have some specific crops, but I'm envisioning this as the mass cover, with patches of other stuff here or there. We'll see if it's 6000 square feet, or if it's more, I really need to get on the ground to know.
