Celebration of the Three Sisters

October 13 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

$12

Celebrate Native American agricultural tradition at our Three Sisters Garden!

Meet the Three Sisters: corn, beans, and squash—a legendary trio that’s been grown together for generations by Indigenous peoples of eastern North America. These amazing plants don’t just share space—they help each other grow, just like a loving family!

According to Iroquois legend, the Three Sisters are inseparable. When planted together, they create a super team that keeps the soil healthy and the harvest strong—a perfect example of nature’s teamwork!

Bring the whole family for a day full of fun, learning, and creativity! You’ll:

Hear the fascinating story behind the Three Sisters Garden
Create colorful mosaics using corn kernels, pumpkin seeds, and beans
Visit our very own Three Sisters garden and see the stunning blue and purple glass gem corn up close!

It’s a hands-on, taste-filled celebration of tradition, nature, and community—perfect for families of all ages!
