 Communal Farming | |
An area set aside for the care and cultivation of livestock and crops.
Livestock and crops are a valuable commodity, allowing the population to grow without relying on what food can be found by hunting and gathering. They provide a constant food source, more than the meat brought in by hunting parties.
Although the processes involved in keeping farms went against the grain of Native Americans’ religion, they did keep crops. They tended to favor corn, beans and squash, crops they referred to as 'the three sisters.'
