RE: Black Beans From the Garden! Picked our first black beans today and shelled a bunch of them.
Those look incredible!!
What a great harvest.
Are you planning to can some?

Thank you very much @goldendawne! These will store dry like this for up to a couple of years and just need to be soaked overnight before cooking. It's easier than canning. I just let them dry on the plant before picking and then store them in a dry place.
That sounds even better.
Will have to consider different beans to grow next year.
What other ones can you do that with? Kidney? Northern?
You can do it with any of them. You may want to test them out by trying to sprout them if you are using grocery store seeds because they may be old. If you just soak them over night and then put then in a colander and rinse then a couple of times a day by the second day they should have sprouted and then you can plant them. I did not test these and I planted them about an inch deep so it took them over a week to come up.Good luck with them. I think you will like growing them. Plant a lot if you want to get a big harvest.
Oh, thank you so much!!
Definitely going to add to garden next year
