Black Coco Beans - Our Own An extra-large and savory heirloom black bean with subtle smoky flavor and creamy texture. Black Coco cook up several times the size of the standard black turtle bean making them a satisfyingly substantial addition to any dish. We especially enjoy them in our burritos or as a rice and bean side.

Boston Cranberry - Our Own Colorful large kidney shaped bean, beige with red stripes. Originally sourced from Rob Johnston, founder of Johnny's Selected Seeds many years ago. According to him, it was called Andrew Kent, and was originally grown on the island of Vinalhaven in Maine. Looks like the Boston Beautiful bean pictured in the 1929 book Beans of New York. While it is beautiful, we call it cranberry to be more descriptive. We likely are the only producers of this rare heirloom bean.

As a small farm we can harvest each type at peak maturity and quality. After the drying process is complete in the barn, the crop is cleaned with conventional screening machines followed by state-of-the-art gravity separation. One final time-consuming step we take with the beans is to use 100-year-old hand grading machines to do final QC. This results in a top quality product far better than commercial grades. Our crop is always fresh harvest and cooks quickly, without the need for presoaking.
