The three sisters garden is a symbiotic formation of corn, beans, & squash. These crops combine to create preferable growing conditions for each of their cohabitants.

I'm working on this. I have 2, soon to be 3 crops of beans & corn in (planning/hoping to get my 3rd crop in on Friday afternoon), and various squash (both summer and winter) planted amongst them. I think I'm going to attempt to put pumpkins in too, one last time - it's a bit late now, but my first batch (which I started inside) were frosted shortly after I set them out (bad timing...), and none of the others that I've tried to directly sow have come up - I think something is digging them up :( But, we should have spagehtti, maybe some butternut squash, cucumbers, zucchini and maybe some watermelon too :)
