I've been thinking of filling in with a cheap legume cover crop too - usually I just cover the rows with leaves, but I know planting something is better for the soil. It's just so damned hot and dry in July/Aug/Sept. I might buy a sack of black eyed peas or pinto beans from the grocery store and sow them.
I don't know of any seed exchanges in my area. I wish gardeners were more sociable - - everyone in my area who has a garden really keep to themselves.
I know! - I wish I lived out there where you were. I'd be in seventh heaven!
