Now that is a fantastic idea, combining different sorts of crops in the same field.  All you need now is some lift out sections for your corn and it will be perfect.

The tea ground cover is very effective. I've often thought of using herbs to achieve a similar finish but was always concerned that the terrain would smell of basil thereafter.

The pumpkins are great, well worth the money for the result.

I am more concerned with how the figures cope with corn stuck up their jacksie!

Isn't corn supposed to be good for 'keeping you regular'?

Toss in the beans and you have the Native American "Three Sisters" (corn, beans, squash). I'm actually starting an experiment with this, myself. If it turns out half as good as your fields, I'll be delighted. Well done!

Just out of curiosity, how did the pumpkin nutritional value affect the fighting capability of the native indians  ???

Dunno about that aspect of 'em, but if you eat the innards and carve a face in the shell you can scare the bejesus out of the enemy by putting them on your head.
Or so Steve tells me.......

That's a very interesting question. Definitely one that deserves its very own thread to get the best exposure and spark a lengthy debate. :)
