Beautiful Bean Trio


If you have not come by the farm stand yet to get some of our colorful beans now is your chance! We have trays of these gorgeous veggies for sale at the farm stand right now but they won’t last long.  Pictured here from left to right are Yellow Wax Beans, Trionfo Violetto Beans and Blue Lake Green Beans.  All three are heirloom varieties with lots of flavor.  We also have beans for sale by the pound, including our family favorite – super tasty  Italian Romano Beans.
 Get them while you can! Now is the time for freezing, canning and pickling, or just fresh beans to enjoy with dinner!
