Crop rotation and Companion Planting Guides

Two guides from SowSeeds that may be of interest to members:

Crop rotation is the process of growing vegetables in their respective families and moving the families around a plot in a specific sequence so they are not grown on the same piece of land for at least 3 years.

Companion planting is an organic method of maintaining a natural balance in your garden, aiding pollination and keeping pest numbers down.  Most companion plants are strongly scented and confuse pests looking for their host plant.
