I picked my first batch of beans this evening, I was expecting just enough for supper but after I was done I harvested 4lbs and 2 oz, canning time is here!!

Looks great trunkman!! Thats a lot of green beans ;)
I like eating them first blanched then I add garlic, olive oil, parsley and salt, maybe even a little lemon juice. But I'm sure they'll taste fine too canned.

Very nice, Trunkman! Those look delicious. Let us know how they taste!!
Trust me, I'll keep you posted, the chickens have made a big difference in my gardens, everything is greener and growing much better than in past years, what a difference!
 
They look delicious Trunkman.....so far, I've planted beans 3 times because we can't keep that pesky cottontail rabbit out of the garden! He keeps finding a hole in the fence somewhere...thinking the shotgun is the answer :tools

When did you plant them? I'm still trying to figure out gardening in the southeast... you're north of me, so I must be LATE on the beans, mine are just starting to flower!
