This Week In the Garden
Saving Bean Seeds

This week in the garden UT Extension Agent Chris Cooper tells what to do to save bean seeds to use next year. You should wait until the bean pods have turned brown or black and the beans rattle inside when shaken. Take them inside and dry them for a week or two on the counter. He describes how to tell when they are dry enough. Collect the seeds and put them in a glass jar. They should be good for several years.
