The Heirloom Seed Growers (of Eastern Ontario) (HSGeo) got together this spring to plant beans. All of them.
\nMore than 10 types.. more than 20 types.. more than 30 types?
\nLooks like 67 types, listed below.<\/p>\n

I will have to get the records to find out the exact number. <\/p>\n

In any event it was a lot of work to put together this Project. After the initial planting on 2013 May 19th, some modifications were made, including the 3′ high chicken wire fencing and then later, an electric fence, to keep the pesky deer critters out of the beans… They love beans.
\nThe bed is approximately 45’x95′ or 4275 ft^2.
\nRows are 28″ apart.<\/p>\n

The following are a collection of images in time sequential order, from 2013 May 19th through to 2013 July 12th.<\/p>\n
