Thanks, Deb!

 

Unfortunately, the fine print says that the beans are fumigated by USDA and may not be suitable for organic production.  I’m not certified, but trying to be organic, so I may not be able to use these.

 

Thanks for the info!

Howdy.

 

I JUST got an email from Seeds from Italy.  Not sure what quantities you need or the exact variety, but here's what they have:

 

 

They do offer some bulk for farmers but not on all varieties.

 

Best,

Hi, Folks!

I have a buyer who would like me to grow fava beans for her.  However, she wants the smaller Mediterranean-style favas, not the large English “broad beans”/Windsor type.

 

So far, I’m only seeing the Windsor type offered in catalogs.  Anyone have a source for the smaller favas?

 

Thanks!
