Join us for the Highland Support Project's Three Sister Dinner, an evening to support our "Healing Through Food" campaign promoting community wellness and sovereignty. Discover how the Three Sisters agricultural system, known as La Milpa in Mesoamerica and the Three Sisters by Eastern Woodland People, embodies ancestral wisdom. This system combines corn, beans, and squash in a harmonious, sustainable relationship, reflecting the deep interconnectedness celebrated in bio-intensive horticulture.
This event is part of our Deep Ecology Education Program and celebrates the Spring Planting of a Three Sisters Garden at Richmond Community High School. The Three Sisters Garden, an ancient agricultural system featuring corn, beans, and squash, serves as both a teaching tool and a living classroom. It connects students to horticulture, earth science, and the cultural heritage of Indigenous planting traditions while fostering a deeper understanding of sustainable practices and the importance of biodiversity.
Through this initiative, students and community members engage in meaningful conversations about environmental stewardship, cultural exchange, and the role of traditional knowledge in shaping a more sustainable future. Join us for this special celebration that blends history, science, and culture, sowing seeds for a healthier, more balanced world.
