🌿 Companion Planting Tips

Broccoli grows best alongside celery, chamomile, onions, dill and marigolds, which deter cabbage worms and aphids. Lettuce also makes a great companion, providing natural ground cover to retain soil moisture. Avoid planting near strawberries or pole beans, which can attract pests harmful to brassicas.
