Our ancestors tell us of a time when three sisters lived together in a field, the tall sister shading her two smaller sisters. Over the course of several weeks, a powerful old woman visited the field taking away the smaller sisters until the tall sister was left sad and alone. At last, the old woman returned and brought the last sister to her home, where the
sisters experienced a joyful reunion. The old woman was named Winter, and the three sisters were corn, beans, and squash. The three sisters sustain us, providing a balanced, nutritious meal
when eaten together.
