McKee Preservation Group Plants a 3-Sisters Garden

Construction of the 3-Sisters Garden has been under way in an empty lot adjacent to Stacy’s Tavern in Glen Ellyn. The garden highlights how Native Americans traditionally produced corn beans and squash together in a manner that did not deplete the soil of nutrients. This garden will be adjacent to another garden that follows methods used by non-indigenous settlers who began arriving in the 1830’s. The public is welcomed to attend at nc charge to help with planting seeds.
