I remember growing up, one of my least favorite parts about having a garden was cleaning the beans. Well here I am with kids of my own and I still do NOT like to clean beans - the difference is, now I can get my kids to do it. They are still young, but give them a few more years and they will be pros. Ok, Eli might need more years than the other two, but he honestly stuck with me the longest today.
Ron and the boys planted the garden this year. And for the first picking of beans the boys helped. I did 13 pints last week. Last night Ron picked for 2 hours and today we canned 28 pints of green beans. There are more to do tomorrow, but it should only be about 14 more pints. Then we should have at least one more picking. I think we should be good on beans for the winter.
