Hello everyone and welcome 🤗
My name is joe and I am an avid gardener in northern Wisconsin.

We have a short season here only 115 or so days of frost free growing 😕 so I have been searching for and experimenting with beans that will grow will in my context. In 2024 I sampled about 15 different varieties of dry bush beans. This lead me to try 20+ in the 2025 season with help from the legendary @russellcrowe and @antman

These wonderful stewards helped me to connect with some beans that they have been working with and shared for me to try. I will share a few pictures of my favorites.

I am open to trades, as they have been passed to me, I'd enjoy sharing, just send me a message and we can figure something out.

Thank you for reading my post 😁
