Seems like homesteaders *living* the life are
providing space for somebody else's ship on that
no longer ""rising" tide" ....

> James, do you grow your own beans?
>

Soybeans, you mean?

Yes. Enough for edamame and a few other purposes, but not nearly enough for
all the tofu & tempeh for a household. Now that I've some more skill in
growing them in a non-agribusiness way, I think I could and have given it a
lot of thought.

The plant, given it's 'druthers, grows more like a shrub than a vine and
although you only get two beans per pod, the yield is astounding.

Every commercial soybean I've planted in my organic mulched beds has punied.
I got some OP (one hopes) seed from Nichols a few years ago and they did
much, much better. I've gotten two other strains since then and they've
done even better.

Black ones did better than yellow ones.

We have a surplus of every type of garden bean every year and so any beans
we want to add to animal feed end up being those. We do buy some to ensure
a household supply for tofu.

James
