Book Review - Great Garden Companions

I picked this book up from the library to try and expand my knowledge of companion planting. Last year worked well, but I was sure there was room for improvement.

Suffice to say, after spending a few hours reading it, I ran off to Barnes & Noble to order my own copy. It contains general principles and then details on each type of crop. It also has information on how to best attract beneficial insects, plants that may keep pests away, and information on each type of garden pest and how to deal with it.

We're going to be putting some of these theories to practice this year.
