Beans, Corn & Squash Garden
Grown together as companion plants, corn, beans, and squash can be inter-planted. This method works because: beans provide nitrogen to the soil while using corn as a trellis; the broad leaves produced by squash help shade the soil, reducing weed pressure and keeping roots cool and moist. When planted close together, these crops produce higher yields and healthier plants. Give it a try in your own garden to see for yourself!
