Does anyone there sow winter wheat? It really makes a pretty pasture and horses love it. It just doesn't come back the next year. It grows around here all winter, I'd think it would there too. It's a cool weather grass.

We've sown rye before and it basically does the same thing. It comes out really pretty over the winter then dies off come summer.

I don't think they do! If I've ever seen it this side of the mountains, I'd recognize it I'd think. Plenty of wheat in Eastern WA, but not here.

Here they often plant clover as a cover crop.
