Just wondering what others are growing for legumes this year?
I have been out of growing legumes for a few years, because of life time constraints and a minor flood resulting in loss of seeds. Excited to be growing again year with a purchase from Sandhill Preservations: Pole Beans:
I plan on buying a few other bush beans locally as well. Dean |

White Scallops and Santorini is a must for Family meals in the summer.
Christmas Grape Beans, Crookneck Squash, Butternut Squash, Collards are a must for my family winter meals. My Collards Plants survived our big snow last week, and I have 2 Butter Nut Squash that i will cook next week. The Cushaw Squash has a 3 year shelf life, but they all get eaten-up for dinner before summer months here at Angel Field.

Not sure yet apart from one, I shall definitely grow the heirloom family one I have that has been grown by my son in laws father for 3/4 of a century. Brought To Canada from Europe between the wars by friends of my in-law member And shared with me about 40 years ago.. No one has ever been able to identify it and we have tried. The bean markings and and flat streaked pods are very similar to Dragons Tongue but it is not a bush bean it is a Pole bean that can grow 10 feet Good very long green bean. great shelly bean and also makes a good dry bean. Very prolific
I need to repleish my seed stock this year. |
