    2023 Little Easy Bean Network - Beans Beyond The Colors Of A Rainbow

    Does anyone have Iroquois Cornbread bean to sell or swap? I grew out my last ones this summer but they didn't produce any harvestable beans! I am not sure why...just put them in too late maybe? I am in Canada.

    @heirloomgal I was just out harvesting my Graines de Cafe that I bought from you in the spring. (Down to zero tonight) I planted them a bit late so I wasn’t expecting a lot but we picked almost 7lbs of pods! Not all are mature enough, so I’ll try some as a shelly. But they survived a light frost...

    Hello from Alberta, Canada!

    Hi everyone, I am a small-scale seed collector (just for my own use, for now) but I would like to have enough volume to sell/share in the future. I think landrace plants are going to be key to producing food in backyards as the climate changes and I would like to be able to contribute to that. I...
