Sainfoin
Sainfoin is a cool-season Legume that is non-bloating. Sainfoin can grow up to 3 feet tall and is commonly used in hay or pasture mixes. Sainfoin grows great in areas where Alfalfa will not grow because of poor PH levels in the soil. Sainfoin will give growers the opportunity of taking one or two cuts of hay.
