What we offer

Our favorites

Every bean here has a story, passed down from one garden to the next. Take a few home and let them tell you theirs.

Cranberry Borlotti

$6 a pound (example)

Speckled red-and-cream pods that turn a deep chestnut when cooked, with a nutty, velvety finish.

Rattlesnake Pole Bean

$5 a pound (example)

Long, mottled pods with a sweet, earthy flavor that holds its shape in stews and salads.

Yellow Eye

$7 a pound (example)

A creamy, buttery heirloom with pale skins and golden eyes, made for slow-simmered suppers.

Good Mother Stallard

$6 a pound (example)

A dark purple bean with a rich, almost wine-like depth, ideal for hearty winter pots.

Jacob's Cattle

$5 a pound (example)

Handsome maroon-speckled beans with a hearty, old-fashioned taste that softens beautifully.

Our story

Where it all began

Bart's Beans started with a simple love of heritage varieties, the beans with old names and stories that many people have never tasted. We wanted to bring them back to the table, one bag at a time.

What matters most to us is flavor and history. Every variety we sell is chosen for how it cooks and tastes, and we are glad to share what we know so you can take a little piece of that history home.

Heritage beans are worth coming in for, and we're glad to help you find the one that suits your kitchen.
