Here's an example of a polyculture going on at the organic farm. This just means that different plants are grown on top of each other as opposed to a monoculture where only one type of plant is grown over a large area. The benefit to this is that the soil doesn't degrade and you get the benefits of multiple plants. This type of agriculture is also much more resistant to disease and pests.
