Spagna Blanco "Butterbeans"


Another tray full of spagna blanco butterbeans were picked today. They are really proving to be prolific as well as huge and indeed tasty. They have been shelled today and put on trays to dry out for winter use.

I can heartily recommend trying them if you like butterbeans, even if they are a type of runner bean.
