Fava fan

Seeds came in beginning of January got them in the ground right away after a soak and inoculation with rhizobia. Just starting on my second year of growing in zone 9b in heavy clay, so I was looking for a winter crop to get roots in the soil. Seeds germinated in approximately 2 weeks and are growing quickly. Not sure if I will use them as a true cover crop and drop them before bean production. Have not grown this variety before but have grown Robin Hood variety in the past and the beans were tender and delicious perfect for stir fry or salads. If you let the pod mature you have to shell the beans before eating. The outside is way too tough if not. Warm regards everyone!

Great price

Best prices period. Everyone is charging an outrageous amount for what is a big staple for us. We love your prices, and the seeds are as good or better than everyone else’s!

Excellent Germination Rate

All seeds germinated. Soaked 1/2 of the seeds overnight, the other 1/2 just directly planted. So far, no issues surviving temps in the lower 20 F.

Uniquely Affordable

I found seeds that I have been searching for endlessly. Even better, was the prices! Got lucky and caught the Summer Sale. Would have paid listed price for such a great variety of heirloom seeds.
