Who doesn't love fava beans? These royalty-worthy legumes have been grown since ancient times and are still going strong today. And there's no wonder why - they're delicious, nutritious, and versatile. This old English variety dates back to 1863. Also known as Broad Beans. Whether you're looking to add some protein-packed goodness to your salads or soups, or wanting to try something new in your main dishes, Windsor Fava Beans are the perfect choice. Nutty and earthy in flavor, with a firm yet tender texture, these beans will elevate any dish. The possibilities are endless with this delicious and healthy legume! The Windsor Fava Bean has been also been used for centuries as a ground cover crop. Fava beans are known for their ability to improve soil health by adding nitrogen and other nutrients, and they also help control weeds. 22g ~ 15 seeds.

Start seed outdoors after danger of frost has passed, usually 1-2 weeks after average last frost date. Inoculating seeds w/ nitrogen fixing-bacteria may increase yields in areas newly planted in beans. Optimum soil temperature for seed germination is 65-85 degrees. Wait until air & soil has warmed up in the spring. Seeds planted in cold soil can germinate slowly and rot. For dried beans, harvest a few weeks after normal picking time when the pods are thick, well-filled and dry. For shelled beans, pick individual pods when the green beans inside are plump.
