This week we visit Three Sisters Farm in Redlands.  Jason and Abby, owners of this organic farm grow their produce in a traditional Native American way.  Called “Three Sisters” where the planting of corn, squash and beans, beneifcially coexist  and provide sustenance and well as lore and legend.  Sister corn grows up tall and straight while sister bean enriches the soil and strethches her vines up for support and sister squash provides cover over the bare ground with her canopy of large leaves.  They also have designed and built a straw bake home.   Their produce is sold through a local CSA.
