Calling all gardeners! Ever wondered can I plant this next to that? Or does this grow well next to this? Find out in this informative workshop where we will discuss companion planting within the vegetable garden. We will dive into interplanting vegetables, herbs and flowers in order to improve the garden's layout. Topics include companion and enemy plants, planting to improve harvest, trap crops, biological pest control, soil enhancement, attracting pollinators and more!
