Companion planting put simply is growing plants together that have a beneficial relationship with one another. And why is it awesome? Because we are working with mother nature rather than spraying chemicals all over her.
When we work collaboratively for the mutual benefit of all the outcomes are always bigger, better and far more productive than we could have ever achieved alone. The same principles apply in the garden. When we work collaboratively with our environment we can see many benefits that go beyond what we see.

That’s what middle aged female brain fog looks like. Anyhoo that's a different podcast… Now let’s chat about comfrey.
