The Green Corn Ceremony still marks the new harvest each year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCorn never grew alone, though. Cherokee families planted corn, beans, and squash together, a method known as the Three Sisters. The corn gives the beans a stalk to climb, the beans feed the soil, and the squash shades the ground. Each one helps the others thrive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis necklace puts those two stories side by side.
