Measuring Day |
Some people compete to see who can grow the biggest pumpkins. We keep things a bit more manageable...at least something I can carry! My mom and son have a yearly contest growing the longest Purple Noodle Bean. "Grammy" smashed the record last summer with 22.5 inches.
Oh, Oh! A Smidge Longer! |
Little Man has just set the new record! This one is still growing, too.

They are also known as Chinese Red Noodle Beans. If you haven't tried them; they are stringless, very mild tasting, and obviously fun to grow. I cut them into 2" pieces and steam them. You can use them the same way you would any green bean.

It is wonderful when the whole family is involved with the farm. Wonder if those beans would grow up here in our Canadian climate???

If you are able to grow green beans then you should be able to grow these, too. They are fun!
