Garden Plans > 2014: The Three Sisters Garden

About this Garden Plan

This is the garden at the back of our property by the lake. Last year was our 2nd time trying Potatoes here and we failed. We only got as much potatoes as we put in seed. This year we are trying the Three Sisters Garden which is a native amerian garden using Pumpkin/Squash, Corn and Beans. As well as some sunflowers and Marigolds for color.
