Orders mailed out as time allows. Thanks for your understanding and patience. NOTE FOR INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS: Unfortunately we are no longer sending seeds internationally at this time. Apologies for the inconvenience but the international paperwork has become too unpredictable and difficult to navigate.
The earliest French settlers brought broad beans with them to Quebec. They are still popular in the Northern regions like Lac St. Jean and Charlevoix where it is too cool to grow common beans easily. They are traditionally used to make fresh broad bean soup. The small to medium seeds are in pods containing 1-4 seeds.
