I tend to pick up the current issue of Herb Quarterly if it looks to have an interesting article or two most seasons. Tractor Supply usually has it, although I could not find the summer 2017 issue in any of the usual places last year ... I probably ought to subscribe. I'll get round-to-it.
This season's issue caught my eye the other day last week, and then I got really excited: an article on companion planting with the focus on herbs! I have Louise Riotte's books Carrots Love Tomatoes and Roses Love Garlic (both in one hardback volume), along with Tammy Hartung's Homegrown Herbs and Miranda Smith's Your Backyard Herb Garden, which have some notes on companion planting as well. Just starting with the HQ article and a stack of 4x6 index cards, I can tell this will be more of a series of posts than just one long post, so I thought to post up my sources in case anyone wants to get these and follow along. David the Good over at theSurvivalGardener.com has expressed an interest in my notes on the topic. Right now I am thinking to divide the herbs into common versus uncommon and annual versus perennial, so it's looking like there will be four posts all told.
