I wrote about green manure about a year ago I think, but as I've done some bits and pieces on organic matter lately I thought it might be worth a revisit.
In the simplest terms, a green manure is an annual, leafy plant, that is cut down and dug into the soil at a certain stage in it's growth.

Green Manure
This is a thread I was involved in on HomeOne, which has some great information you might find useful!
One thing not mentioned there: soil carbon. Get that green manure dug into your soil and you'll be increasing your carbon reservoir. Great for your garden and great for the planet :)
