Like any knowledgeable individual, I know to question the sources of information. So, as intrigued as I was by this graphic I questioned its validity; how do I really know that these companion matches are accurate? Well, I scrolled to the bottom of the infographic and Googled Afristar. This was taken directly off of their website:
Afristar Foundation nurtures partnerships to develop Eco Settlement projects or aspects thereof to meet South Africa’s Reconstruction and Development Agenda. This is achieved through innovative earth-based and people-based solutions that introduce sustainable livelihoodsoach to address the key issues of urban and rural land use management, design and restitution. Our commitment is to initiate and assist the process of establishing a vibrant, socially conscious, economically and environmentally sustainable culture. (Source: http://afristarfoundation.org/what-we-do/)I hope that the words 'urban' and 'rural land use management' stuck out to you, because they sure did to me. Now knowing, that the source of the poster is legitimate, let's go back to the photo and let me explain why I like it a lot.
For those who are not natural green thumbs, this graphic is easy to understand. The types of vegetables are also varied which gives a lot of freedom on the gardener's end on what vegetable can be planted with which. This is an important ability to have if you are limited on space or even seed.
I can't wait to start my own garden!
