Building a three sisters garden

Post by amybyrd21 on Thu Apr 12, 2012 7:03 am

http://www.offthegridnews.com/2012/04/11/how-to-build-a-three-sisters-garden/ This is from off the grid news and there seems to be a lot of good articles here I am looking around right now.

I like off grid news and Mother Earth news. Both have some wonderful articles.

I like the ideas both present, but I have found the details very sketchy at best. Most projects are presented in an over simplified manner. None the less, a great source for inspiration. Thanks for the link amybyrd.

The Three Sisters is an old Native American way of gardening. My Dad use to do the three sisters all the time. Each plant compliments and helps the other. Great way to grow things the natural way. Smile

We are actually doing this this year. My son has wanted to put in a 3 sisters for a few years and I've always put it off for one reason or another. But this year, we're trying our hand at it. I hope it works out well ~ we shall see. :0)
