Turkey Craw Dry Pole Bean | Various Packet Sizes | Phaseolus vulgaris | Organically Grown, Non-GMO, Grown in the USA

$2.00



Phaseolus vulgaris. Turkey Craw is one of my favorite pole beans and has a great story to go with it. In the 1800s, the seed was found in the craw of a turkey brought home in by a enslaved African American hunter. In modern times, Turkey Craw has been honored by Slow Food as an oustandingly tasty, culturally important, and endangered heirloom variety hailing from Tennessee, Virginia, and North Carolina. It is listed in Slow Food's Ark of Taste to help protect it from extinction.

Turkey Craw is one of those varieties that is considered to be dual purpose -- it produces 4-6" pods that are delicious when young, green, and snappy. Or you can use it as a shell/dry bean, where the seeds are sweet, rich, buttery, and meaty in taste and texture and make a nice 'gravy' when canned. The seeds are a beautiful frosted brown and tan. We grow our vines on cattle panels or in our sweet corn. 80 days to shell bean, 100 to dry bean.

We recommend growing Turkey Craw Dry Pole Bean in full sun. Planting and care instructions are available on our YouTube channel.

Sorry, we cannot sell Phaseolus varieties to Washington state.
