Organic Black Beans

The subtle firmness and meaty taste of slow-cooked black beans have made them a staple ingredient in Latin American cuisine for more than 7000 years. Fold into cooked rice for a simple meal or use as the base for a vegetarian black bean burger. All of our beans are grown in crop rotation with grains right here in New England.

What is a Crop Rotation? 
Crop Rotation is one of the oldest and most effective growing strategies to maintain healthy plants and soils. Grain crops consume vital nutrients such as nitrogen, while legumes like the common bean do the opposite – pulling nitrogen from the atmosphere and fixating it back into the soil.

By alternating these crops year-to-year on the same plot of land, our farmers can maintain a healthy and productive soil, all while disrupting the lifecycle of damaging pests & plant diseases. We are proud to support our grain farmers who employ this age-old practice!
