Anyone grow Fava Beans?
I just got an order from Seeds from Italy (in two days no less!). One of the things I'd ordered were Fava Beans and not really knowing much about them, except they are my mom's favorite, and we always ate them growing up, I'm reading. One thing I found interesting is that they are a very good cover crop to grow aside from all of the health benefits.
Anyone ever grow these? Supposedly you can winter them over too in warmer climates as they do like cold.
