Our Three Sisters Garden in front of the Fur Trade Cabin has really taken off this summer! Three Sisters gardening had been practiced by Native Americans for thousands of years when French fur traders arrived in what we now know as Wisconsin. Native Americans priced the cultivation of the "Three Sisters", corn, pole beans, and squash because they not only helped one another flourish, but because these staples provided a well balanced diet. Admission to the park is still waived! We'd love for you to come take a look!

We've been getting some fantastic feedback! So many of our guests have expressed their gratitude and joy at being able to explore the park this summer! One guest recently shared that she's begun a tradition of touching our Birch Bark Chapel to mark her journey on the trails. She's even created a hashtag #touchthewigwam to celebrate both achieving this goal and her favorite area in the park!
We are so thankful to all of our visitors who have come to stroll the trails, and are beyond pleased at the response! Admission is still waived. Tell us your favorite spot in the park! Have you been inspired to create a hashtag? We love to seeing your photos and hearing all about the memories you're making here at The Hill.
