2025 Little Easy Bean Network - Growers Of The Future Will Be Glad We Saved

i did go out and pick some beans today even if i was sticking to the top of the garden itself. now they are all spread out and drying in the sun and the breeze as much as they can before i have to bring them in tonight. in a half hour i'll go out and give them a stir to help them along a bit more.

such a nice day outside.

I am just loving this new bean, Siebenbürgen-Kärnten! It's looking pink right now, but I can see it's color shifting quickly to a salmon shade. The first pods I opened are already distinct from the latest ones I've shelled. I had a single seed left to grow this year after bombing with it last year! I had good luck and the plant grew well, though it was a bit crowded by a nearby sunchoke so I suspect it didn't produce as much as it could have. Needless to say, I have many more seeds to replant next year! It is later maturing, but with a better head start I'm sure it would finish here in better time.

Kind of Reminds me of Tunny except maybe for much bigger seed.

Yah, I guess they are pretty similar!

All the pods I've shelled so far, as well as all the dried garden plants, got wood chipper-ed and I spread the crumbs across the beds that I thought needed them most.

This is where we're at now. I'm hoping to finish the bean shelling this week and get everything through the chipper and spread before the snow flies.
