The Milpa - Sacred Agriculture
The traditional cornfield that sustains life through the integration of crops.
The milpa combines corn, beans, and squash - the three sisters - in an integrated system that sustains both land and people. The milpa is not merely agriculture but a spiritual practice, a partnership between humans, plants, and the earth.
The milpa feeds the family; care for it as you would care for your children.
Milpa agriculture represents indigenous sustainability principles.
