Garden Companion Planting Guide

Are you gardening this spring? You’ll want this Garden Companion Planting Guide to make sure you have the best garden ever!

I’m excited about gardening this spring. If you’ve been hanging around the Frugal Farm Wife Facebook page, you already know that we’ve been growing microgreens on the porch while we wait for the ground to warm up, and I’m always a fan of growing sprouts on my kitchen counter.

And it finally warmed up! …then it started raining before we got our garden plowed. It’s fine, though, because, well, it’s still March. No rush, right? Even in central Texas.

While it was raining this week, I stayed home and conducted some research that I thought I’d share with you.

Why Companion Plant?

Think of your garden as a neighborhood. Plants need good neighbors to thrive—neighbors who don’t compete for root space, water, or nutrients.

Or better yet, plants that don’t just not compete, but that feed each other.

For instance, while corn is a heavy nitrogen feeder, beans release nitrogen into the soil. Thus, the tradition of planting pole beans among corn stalks gives the beans support.
