My neighbor recently taught me this in my yard when he stopped by; I was growing a pot of each along with some other plants I had never tried to grow and didn’t even know the history.
Among Native Americans and First Nations peoples, the planting combination of corn, squash, and beans is known as "Three Sisters."
In Central America and Mexico, the practice is known as milpa, and it dates back thousands of years. 🧵⬇️

At this point, our intro comp/first-year English course has been so heavily revised, it no longer includes a novel, or "extended reading" of any kind, no "specialized" or "historical" reading, mostly in-class assignments, no research essay...and we are still seeing a 40-50% rate of AI misconduct.
