Putting up Green Beans for Winter
[Untitled] After picking our beans, I usually get my boys on “bean snapping duty” right away. (They never complain about this job. I think it’s because they are given permission to “break things”….what do you think?) They snap off the ends and put the green beans into a colander. As soon as the colander is full I wash the beans to try to get as much “garden”

Unfortunately, if you let very many of the beans get mature the plant thinks it is done producing and stops sending up new flowers and your planting is ready to pull out. At this point you can start planting your fall crop of carrots, beets, greens, etc.

[Think On It] Summer smooch: “as long as your thumb and barely thicker than a hair”¦” I grow my own green beans, have grown several kinds over the years, and the barely thicker than a hair just doesnt happen in my experience. In seeking the effect I have picked green beans so small they fell through the holes in my colander, but they were already a good bit thicker than a hair and besides they didnt taste like green beans.
