Did you know that planting basil next to your tomatoes supposedly improves the flavor of your tomatoes?!!!
Did you know that corn, beans, and squash are known as the "Three Sisters" in veggie gardening? Planting beans near corn allow the beans to climb the corn stalks. Beans' root bacteria help with obtaining collecting/processing nitrogen that is needed by all plants, but especially by the corn. Squash leaves provide shade and help prevent moisture loss, weed growth, and animal pests.
Not only does companion planting naturally control pests; it also can improves flavor and growth!
