Garden Plans > 2018: Community Garden

About this Garden Plan

A small compact companion garden. This garden has been designed to use a plant to better another plant neighbor. This can be to help the host plant repel pests that are repelled by the companion plant such as Marigolds. Or a root vegetable to keep the soil airy around tomatoes or peppers. I hope to be able to teach families what I know about growing vegetables so that they can grow one of their own. If nothing else, the kids will get an birdseye view of how things get from the ground to the grocery store!
