Bean Harvest



I went to the garden in the sunshine this afternoon when I could count on my bean plants being dry, and look what I found hiding between the leaves! This is my first harvest of snap beans this year. I have one row of each variety. The yellow/purple one is Dragon Tongue, a heritage variety with long, flattish pods that taste buttery when cooked. The green with faint purple stripes is Thibodeau de Comte Beauce. I have not eaten these yet, but they look delicious.

What is everyone else eating from the garden?
