A friend told me about the Three Sisters growing method.
Apearently It comes from the Native Americans who would
grow Corn, Beans and Squash together. *The corn stalks
would provide a trellis for the beans to grow on, and
the squash would grow on the ground and provide cover
to control the weeds. Sounds intresting.

Anyone else heard of it? *Anyone tried it?


I have never heard of it.


Gee Ryan, thanks for your insight, wisdom, and
contribution to the subject.
