How do different heirloom bean varieties taste compared to store-bought?
I've grown quite fond of trying new seeds, and heirloom beans have really caught my attention lately! I’m curious about the taste differences. Having grown some native plants and perennials, I’ve come to appreciate the nuances in flavors among various species. I’ve heard that heirloom beans can have rich, unique flavors compared to the more common varieties you find at the store. I’m in the Midwest, and I'd love to hear from others who have grown heirloom varieties. What can I expect in terms of flavor profiles? Are there specific kinds that stand out? I'm looking for recommendations for the best-tasting heirloom beans to include in my garden this year!
