monster beans


There was excitement in the playground as the word has got around, our bean hut was yielding a crop of monster beans.  If by crop you mean 3 beans.  But they were enormous.


A crowd gathered to get a closer look.

"Monster beans!"


"We have to eat them!"

How do we share out 3 beans between 25 children?  Chop them into tiny bite-sized pieces.

Small though the sample may have been, our first harvest of fresh, crisp beans went down a treat.

It is such a privilege to be reminded of the excitement,  awe and wonder of the natural world through the experience of young children.

What's growing in your veggie garden?
