An heirloom bean that has been stewarded in West Virginia for generations, Logan Giant is praised by our friends Mike Costello and Amy Dawson of Lost Creek Farm for its flavor and versatility. This very productive pole bean variety has large, brown seeds with white frosting pattern on them. It is both great as a snap and dry bean, and folks also use the pods to make leather britches.
