According to Native American legend, winter squash, corn, and climbing beans are inseparable sisters who can only grow and thrive together. Known as a companion planting technique the Three Sisters are: corn, which provides a strong structure for beans, beans, which provide nitrogen to the soil, and squash, whose leaves provide shade to the soil, and their rough edges deter pests.
