I'd like to try the blue Hopi corn,  can get any more native than that.  But haven't found what to get for beans and squash.

And they sell the heirloom seed combo:

A living history trio: this handsome bonus packet contains three inner packets of heirloom seeds: multi-colored Earth Tones Dent Corn, Scarlet Runner Beans to twine up the corn stalks and Sugar Pie Pumpkins to cover the ground. 

It doesn't say how many seeds there are, I want to grow at least two circles.

Last year I thought I had corn growing below the bird feeder until a neighbor clued me in that it as millet.  Amazingly, the rabbits only ate very little of it.
