Three Sisters Garden
I just ordered seeds for this year's vegetable garden last night. Normally I would plant tomatoes, chili peppers, Basil, tomatillos and a few other plants but I never have great success. I suspect that my garden is not in the best area. It doesn't get enough sunlight and yet is it is the sunniest place in my yard
So this year I've decided to plant a Three sisters garden. A Three sisters garden is a traditional native American garden consisting of three crops. Corn is the foundation for the garden. The corn stocks will act as a trellis for the beans and squash that make up the other two crops.
The varieties I've selected are fortex Pole bean, purple pod Pole bean, American dream corn and black zucchini.
I know that I'll probably wind up with a few chili pepper plants and maybe a tomatillo. I'm looking forward to a great growing season.
