Organic Pest Management for Tomato Hornworms 🍅🐛

Did you know you can plant beneficial plants near your tomato crop to attract parasitizing predators for the tomatoes number 1 enemy? (The tomato hornworm!)

At Moon Valley Farm, we plant bronze fennel, which is a host plant for the black swallowtail (its foliage) and also attracts the braconid wasp (the flowers).

We want our plants to work FOR us to help us reduce our inputs and our work, while producing better crops. Win win!
