I had the privilege of reading the 50th anniversary edition. This book is full of amazingly useful knowledge. I can't wait to take advantage of the benefits of companion planting and learning how my own garden changes as a result.

Every gardener needs this! I plan on using much of this information heavily next season when I plant my garden. I learned so much from this book about what to plant next to each other and what should stay separated.

I can't believe I haven't come across this book before! I love learning about tips for growing vegetables and companion planting. This is a classic so deserving of a 50th Anniversary reprint. I love the way the book is organized alphabetically by vegetable, along with fun facts sprinkled in. There are sections on herbs, wild plants, fruits, and nuts as well. I very much appreciate the section on how to deal with pests using natural methods. There are hand-drawn classic illustrations throughout that add to the charm as well. Overall a must-add to any vegetable gardener's shelf! I look forward to organizing my garden around Louise Riotte's tips, and to see how it goes!

This was SO helpful! I am so glad I got approved for this arc as I was winding down my garden for the year and thinking about how I want to use my space for effectively next season! This is clear, informative, and super practical for any gardener to use!

Carrots Love Tomatoes has quickly become one of my top recommended gardening reference guides. First published in 1975, this updated 50th anniversary edition is a classic for gardeners. It is filled with tried and true wisdom when it comes to companion planting. A simple flip through the alphabetical listing allows a gardener to find specific plant information and a guide to what will be its best pest-repelling companion and which plants thrive with others.

Additionally there are chapters about herbs, fruits and trees and most importantly soil health and composting.

Great for beginners or experienced gardeners alike. This is an indispensable gardening reference book for those who want to garden using more natural pest control and less fertilizers.

If you are a gardener, new or experienced, this book is amazing! It is a wonderful reference guide that should be in ever gardeners collection.

It is a great guide to use when planning a garden or adding something new into your garden. The way that it is laid out it is easy to find a specific plan and then to read about that plant. It will break down the other plants it loves to be around as well as the plants it should not be near in your garden. This can be really helpful when planning your garden and in making sure that your plants are benefiting each other instead of working against each other!

I loved the illustrations in this version as well!

This book dives deep into the practice of companion planting in gardening. I know the basic of gardening and using host flowers for some vegetables (ex: nasturtiums planted next to squash can keep aphids and other pests at bay), but this book dives into companions for nearly every plant you can think of to add to your garden, and explains why it works. The way I would use this book is that of a reference guide, rather than a book to read cover to cover, although you certainly could if you wish!

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for an advance copy!

I really appreciate this classic gardening book. It's straightforward and helpful, and a great resource to have to refer back to when planting so you can have success in your garden yield. It contains simple and cute black and white illustrations that make it a joy to flip through!

Thank you for my earc of this book. This is a helpful book to have, especially as a gardening beginner and it’s something I can keep referring to

Decent reference book for gardeners! I know nothing about gardening, which was why I wanted to read this. I learned a lot and it is a very thorough guide, organized by type of plant (vegetables, fruit, herbs, etc).

"Carrots Love Tomatoes" is an easy and enjoyable read, perfect for both expert gardeners and beginners. I love how it's laid out in alphabetical order, making it super convenient to jump right to the plants you're interested in. This book will be a huge help when planning and planting in the garden. Whether you're just starting out or have years of experience, this book is a great resource to have on hand!

This book was very easy to look at, the formatting and graphics were great. I really enjoyed this book, and will be getting a hard copy!

Carrots love Tomatoes felt like reading a grandmothers journal about gardening.

It is a lovely book jammed with information about every kind of green you can imagine.

I learned so incredibly much about the things I can grow, the things I already grow, and how to be successful while doing so.

The illustrations are beautiful, handmade with so much detail, and I was truly in awe the whole time.

A huge thanks to NetGalley and Storey Publishing for the lovely opportunity to read this book.
And thank you, Louise Riotte, for making this amazing piece.

Great read for any gardener of any level! I learned quite a bit and have a better idea of how I want to do my own garden next year to make it thrive more.
