Tepary Beans
Harvesting Information
Let pods mature and dry fully on the vine before harvesting. Once the pods are crisp, pull the plants and thrash them to remove the beans. Store your fully dried beans in a cool, dry place, and when properly cured, they can be saved for seed or stored for long-term food use. This will give you a reliable, nutrient-dense food source that you won't find in most grocery store supply chains.
