Three Sisters: Corn, Beans and Squash
Health/Wellness | Registration opens 8/10/2026 12:00 AM MST (Arizona)
According to Iroquois legend, corn, beans, and squash are three inseparable sisters who only grow and thrive together. This tradition of inter-planting corn, beans and squash in the same mounds, widespread among Native American farming societies, is a sophisticated, sustainable system that provided long-term soil fertility and a healthy diet to generations. Native Americans always inter-planted this trio because they thrive together, much like three inseparable sisters
