Bush Dry Bean, Arikara

New for 2012  80 days. Super early maturing dry bean once grown by the Arikara Tribe in North Dakota. The seed has a unique yellow-brown color and tastes great cooked up straight or even refried. It has been challenging to grow dry beans in western Oregon but Arikara is a bean we can rely on. Found cultivated along the Missouri river by Lewis and Clark and sent back to Thomas Jefferson in 1805.
Seed produced by our friends at Lonesome Whistle Farm in Eugene, Oregon.
