Events:
Each Saturday from April to August, volunteers with
green thumbs can help plant, maintain, and harvest our
traditional Cherokee Three Sisters garden. We'll provide
the heirloom plants & seeds if you provide the help!
Come harvest time, our volunteer gardeners are welcome
to take home whatever they help to grow!
According to Cherokee legend, corn, beans, and squash
are three inseparable sisters who only grow and thrive
together. The corn stalk provides a natural pole for the
beans to climb, the beans provide nitrates into the
soil, and the squash plant provides shade to hold in
moisture and repel insects. So, the three sisters all
work together to provide a bountiful harvest!
