Turkey Craw Bean

In the fall of 2018, the Sustainable Mountain Agriculture Center was relocated to a 1,500 farm that was donated by Millard and JJ Oakley to the Tennessee Tech University Foundation near Cookeville, TN.  The Center now uses the greenhouses and adjacent land to teach Tennessee Tech students how to grow and market produce and seeds. This past summer we had eight students working as interns and had an excellent year for both the greenhouse tomatoes and beans.  We currently have 162 bean varieties in stock for sale to the public.  We look forward to the upcoming season and feel as though we are prepared, as we couldn't keep up with demand for the tomatoes and bean seeds.

This Year's Seed Crop Has Been Harvested

We are now back in stock for almost all of the beans we save with the exception of a couple of varieties including the Rose Bean that we are growing out in our greenhouse.  Those will be ready in a couple months.  Check out the Seed Catalog to see the selection as we update it over the next week.

Shipping our seeds
​

We hope this season has fewer issues related to shipping.  We would like to mention that our $4.00 rate is for both shipping and handling.  We also hope to be converted over to being able to ship straight from the farm as well before the end of November 2020.
