  1. No problem. I'll make sure you're updated.
  2. Racoons took down all of our corn stalks last year, and I was just delighted to learn that the squash plants repel the racoons. I love the idea of the circular garden with the sunflowers! And I most definately will now plant catnip and lemon balm because I get squash bugs every single year. I'll keep you posted on my progress.
  3. I'm so excited! I've been reading up on the Native American way of planting the Three Sisters-- Corn, Beans and Squash. It is really something how these three plants not only work together to improve each other's growing ability, but work together nutritionally when you eat them. The Three Sisters garden sustained Native American life for many years and even helped the pilgrims. If it can sustain life for them, I think it's well worth looking into for the tough times coming ahead. My husband is Blackfoot Tribe....I thought he would be so proud of me planting this way, but he is so funny! He poked fun at me and made jokes about "who are these three women?" He likes to joke like that; he makes me laugh! I will start the planting tomorrow. I can't wait! Here's a great link if anyone else is interested: http://www.reneesgarden.com/articles/3sisters.html
  4. These are exactly what I need. Thanks for posting these. They are very helpful.
