We are in the garden, preparing for extensive planting.  We are currently planting peas, lettuces, cilantro, dill, radishes, spinach, kale, swiss chard, broccoli, cabbages, fava beans and more.  It is so satisfying to be outside.  

When looking at our garden, we think of several ways to repel pests, control weeds and boost our garden's overall health.  Companion planting means growing two or more different plants in close proximity.  Incorporating plants that attract beneficial insects, deter pests or invigorate the soil will result in boosted garden resilience and enhance the health of your garden.  The close spacing typical of most companion planting naturally squeezes out weeds.  Some people say that certain vegetables taste better when planted with marigolds or calendula.  Some marigold release natural nematode repellents into the soil, making them a great companion for tomatoes and peppers.  "Three Sisters" planting include corn, beans and squash.  All are beneficial to the other.  Every garden in unique and companion planting increases the diversity of plants making for a healthier and happier garden.
