We’ve grown different types of beans for years here at the Farmer’s Pantry, but this is the first time we’ve ever had them available to be picked by you! This spring we dug two small container gardens right on our front lawn. It’s close to the goat pen, but far enough away that Walnut and Cashew can’t reach to get a taste! (They’re pretty sad about that!) Container gardens built, we started planting away! We plant rows of beans several weeks apart so that they keep maturing throughout the season, keeping fresh beans here longer! When they’re planted has a lot to do with when they are ready to be picked, which usually lands anywhere from late July or throughout August. They’re ready now!
Come pick pints and quarts of either wax beans or green beans, and mix and match the two varieties together! The bushes are teeming with them!
…And speaking about pick your own, pick your own apple season is almost here! The Macintosh will be ready next week, then new varieties will join in as the month progresses!
