Vermont Cranberry Bean

By: Ray S on 19 June 2018
An excellent, productive bean for eating either at the shell stage (beans fully formed but not dry) or dry stage. As a shellie they won’t have developed their full colours and will cook quickly without the need for soaking. I’ve used them, either at shellie stage or dry, in soups and stews. Excellent. I’d give it four stars for the colour of the beans alone!
