Local Bean Club (Ithaca-Trumansburg)

The Details

We work with several community partners and friends to get our beans to you.

Via:

The Full Plate Winter Veggie CSA. You can get your beans here even if you don’t have a veggie share (but the winter share is so good)!

The delicious folks at Wide Awake Bakery at their new retail bakery in downtown Ithaca.

Ithaca Coffee Company

Ecovillage @ Ithaca and White Hawk Ecovillage

What you get:

• Four bags each month, each one a different variety.
• Varieties range from pantry staples to uncommon heirlooms, each with unique cooking qualities to discover.
• A diversity of beans + a single bag of heirloom popcorn also grown by us.
• In total, we will share 16 pounds of freshly harvested and dried bounty with you. That totals 128 servings of pure plant protein.

Worried you might get too much leguminous goodness to handle? Properly harvested and dried beans (like ours!) stay fresh and tasty in your pantry for at least a year. Our retail-style bean bags make great gifts as well.

You will also receive fun varietal lore, cooking tips and more via a monthly bean dispatch - we are serious bean nerds and love to swap bean stories and favorite recipes!
