We are having a heat wave right now, but the beans keep on producing. So far, at least! I just went out and picked a few young pods. I plan on steaming them along with some new, freshly dug potatoes, for dinner tonight. I did taste one fresh off the vine, and the young pod has a nice mild, sweet taste to it. I like the flavor. Thank you

Ginny
