About Beans, Peas & Corn
Few things in a kitchen garden move quite like a pole bean, climbing hand over hand up a trellis by late June, its tendrils spiraling around every rough bit of string and bamboo they can find. Sweet corn stands apart at the back of the patch, its tassels dusting the silk below with pollen on a still summer morning. Snap peas and shell beans go their own quiet way, filling the row with a crispness that never quite survives the trip to the grocery store.
