Potatoes

America’s basic comfort food! Much can be said for this staple of the pantry that appears so simple yet can be prepared in so many different ways: boiled, baked, fried, mashed, sliced, diced, in soups, salads, and casseroles. There are so many varieties of this tasty root vegetable, in so many shapes, textures and colors that are unavailable in grocery stores, it only makes sense to try your hand at growing them for yourself.

Companions: basil, beans, cabbage, corn, eggplant, marigold, peas, squash.
Antagonists: cucumbers, pumpkins, sunflowers, and tomatoes.
