Fish-powered and ready to grow!🐟🌱
Over at our ketayak garden, we have been prepping our 4 beds of 3 Sisters! Last week, our Urban Ag staff were out burying some fish from our friends over at Hooked Fish & Seafood to give the soil a healthy boost. This week we will be direct seeding our corn and transplanting our squashes!🌽
💡 Did You Know?
*3 Sisters (known as milpa in the south) is an ancient planting method that reflects ancestral wisdom. Corn, pole bean and squash grow so well together because they all mutually benefit from the characteristics of the others.
*Can be grown as an entire field, or adapted to a patio garden with the selection of dwarf varieties.
🔥 Let us know in the comments if you have ever used fish for soil amendments and/or planted 3 Sisters!👇
