I'm nearly finished but the thought of what's left is almost too much.

Here are three new beans I'm growing from Native Seeds/SEARCH. This is an organization that supports the plants and foods of Northern Mexico and the Southwest US. It's a good cause but they do us no favors when some of the seeds they send for growing are shriveled or wrong. I know it's a non-profit but the point is to save seed, so let's get it right!

Hopi Black Pinto. I've tried them before with little luck. Maybe this year!


Cerocahui. I don't remember why I ordered these seeds!


Mount Pima Star. These look a lot like the odd Flor de Mayo I got from an Indian woman in Cholula. I'll grow them both this year and compare.

Now back to the tiller!
