Feeding the Sisters


The 3 Sisters are coming along nicely (sweet corn, pole beans, winter squash). Because I planted them in clover patches, however, I've been having to remove the cages and weed around them every couple of days. Thus I've recently hauled out of the lake 2 large wheelbarrowfuls of seaweed and mulched around the plants. This will likely reduce the need for weeding in upcoming weeks, and will also provide a source of nourishment for the plants.
