The best beans ever!
Reviewed By: Kelsey (Mineral Point, WI)
These are the best beans ever. We planted one package last summer and we had more beans than we knew what to do with. We gave tons away to our friends and family. We had beans for dinner 3 times a week from July until September, then we ate the beans that we froze until November.

Excellent beans
Reviewed By: Michael (Gahanna, OH)
These were great. Produced a large quantity all summer. Everyone that we gave them to raved about the flavor.

Awesome producers!
Reviewed By: Susan (Jefferson, AR)
I was amazed with how fast these beans grew and started growing beans! I have been harvesting beans from three plants for about two weeks now, and the other three seeds I planted a little later to stagger the harvest are now ramping up production. They have no strings (yay!) and are crisp and tasty.
