Companion Planting with Herbs

When we grow food and medicine we can’t just extract plants from the soil. Its important as we grow both food and medicine that we also heal the land.

“Regenerative agriculture” is the concept we can heal both ourselves and the land by growing food and medicine. Regenerative agriculture is all about healing the soil.  Healthy soils produce healthy food and medicine.

5 Principles of Regenerative Agriculture

  1. Keep the soil covered
  2. Minimize soil disturbance
  3. Maximize crop diversity
  4. Maintain living roots in the ground year-round
  5. Integrate livestock

Companion planting satisfies 4 out of 5 of these principles.
