2nd Harvest of Beans

My 'Contender' Bush Beans have already been pretty productive. We harvested last week and slow cooked the beans with some bacon like my mom did when I was young. They were tender and delicious, but probably a lot less healthy than just steaming them!


The 1st two rows were planted on 4-4-09. The last row in this bed was planted on 4-25-09. It's just starting to produce full size beans.


This is one of 3 rows planted on 6-6-09 of 'Top Crop' beans.
On left you can see the *tiny* lime basil seedlings planted at the same time.
