This episode is a deep dive into the "Three Sisters" method, an ancient indigenous planting strategy that serves as a blueprint for sustainable, high-yield gardening in the modern backyard. We explore the biological synergy between corn, beans, and squash—a living technology that eliminates the need for synthetic fertilizers and constant weeding by mimicking the natural rhythms of an ecosystem.
