Organic, Non-GMO Soybeans/ Edamame

In our lifetime, and perhaps soon, we are going to see the end of this legume, as it once existed free of genetic modification. Almost all of the soy you eat currently comes from Genetically Modified plants.

I'm working for a farmer who planted and is selling these delicious little Organic, Non-GMO pods and I hope that in your lifetime you might be able to taste what real soybeans taste like. They are very different than the bowls of huge green edamame served at every Japanese restaurant I've ever been to.

Think small, sweet, almost pea like, as opposed to starchy bean.

See you soon?

That's upsetting. I want some real edamame!

I grow Fava's, and I will give you as much as you can handle. I grow them in the front yard. They are planted late October. They will be from last years seed.(Non-GMO). They are a fun plant and easy to grow. The add nitrogen to the soil. Everybody wins.
One last point. My Dad,used to say,(Fava's}, "They are a lot of work for what your get"

It would be great if there were a lot of farmers who grow organic vegetables, or better yet, grow the vegetables yourself :)

Alisa,

Yes, I agree, and many more Organic farmers exist than might have a dozen years ago-- but saving this legume from partial extinction is a big deal, one which, if we are all not made aware of, will surely disappear.

If everyone who had dirt near them could grow a bit of their food, imagine the revolution! But it is important to remember that most urban dwellers do not. Maybe we could train a Small Farming Army to teach people how to grow just a little bit... ~ Shuna

I have heirloom, organic soybeans. I have 32 varieties for sale. I don't have enough to sell bulk, these are for growing your own in your garden.
