Tomatoes love carrots
The secrets of good neighborliness in your garden!*
As part of our drive to save nature, this book will help you discover that vegetables and fruit, like people, have natural friends and prefer to be in each other's company. Beans grow well with beet and potatoes, leeks with celery, onions with carrots... all depending on root exudation, the plants' ability to fix nitrogen from the air, their smell... But there are also incompatibilities - notably melons and potatoes, onions and beans...
Not only will you be able to grow your crops without insecticides, but the harmony of your plantings will also enable you to return to the earth the elements it needs for your crops in subsequent seasons.
An indispensable practical guide for all eco-gardeners.
