Native American 'Three Sisters Garden'

I've always been fascinated by the Native American tradition of the three sisters. The basic concept is to plant beans, corn and pumpkins in a large mound. The corn gives structure for the beans to grow, the beans, a legume, fixate the nitrogen for the corn and the pumpkin.

For more information see attached an excellent article from one of my favorite seed companies, Renee's Garden. She has created a collection of three excellent varieties .Let me know if you try this and give me your feedback.
