Can't lie, they got me going!! Watching what they do here in AZ just got me going! I've personally meet them a few times and they are just as advertised!!! AWESOME people!!
I am really happy to see that you are calm and happy and living your life every day, passing quietly and safely without missiles and alarms every day and you know that your children are satisfied and sleeping in their bed every night.
We have been very blessed with this property. The goal was to slow things down a bit and return to natural living as much as we're able to. We don't take that for granted!
Haven't chatted with you guys in a while but ... For the tepary: Make basic wooden frames with a layer of aluminum screen material on top. You can easily make a small footprint rack with them. About 3 or 4 inches between each shelf. Toss your bean pods onto the racks in a roughly single layer and let them air dry for a few days to a week (when it's still hot and dry during the day). Be sure to protect from critters. After they dry you should be able to toss them into a plastic tote and then just rough them up for a bit (by hand or with a broom handle). The dry hulls will split just from the agitation and the beans will all fall to the bottom while the lighter hulls basically float on top of the beans. Recovery isn't perfect but it will let you process a ton without the labor and hand hulling. If the hulls don't readily shatter apart just let them dry longer. --- If you want higher recovery but dont mind a little more labor you can take a handful of the dried pods, put them between your hand, and just rub your hands back and forth. You'll end up with a lot of small hull bits you'll want to winnow out like chaff but you'll completely bust apart the hulls to get to every last bean. ----- Also, look up recipes for traditional "Poshol". Very nummy.
Hey stranger! Ok, these are FANTASTIC suggestions. We spent a bit of time cracking a bucket of these open yesterday morning and noticed how many beans had naturally fallen to the bottom. Much easier to just sift through the chaff rather than cracking each one open! Now off to look up Poshol recipes!
Looking forward to seeing a bean recipe with that harvest! I enjoy watching the pigs and goats go after the green vines! Also the enjoyed hearing the turkeys talking through out the video.. they really have great sounds as they curiously look through the vines and act VERY interested in whatever you are doing. Thank you for another terrific video!
We're looking forward to using these beans as well. The plan is to keep them mixed as they all have a slightly different flavor and texture. The animals really are the lifeblood of the farm and the turkeys are really funny. They get right up in there with you and want to know exactly what you're doing!
I’m so glad you discovered the tepary bean. They do great here in south Texas as well so I knew they would do well for you too when you started growing them. Also there are several varieties to choose from.
Ooh, I'm glad to hear they're doing well for you also. We have a few folks we chat with in TX, so we can add this to the list of suggested plants for them too!
Good stuff. Those tepary beans look like they'd make a mean ham-n-bean soup! I wonder how they'd work for Ezekiel Bread? Definitely need to make a big ol' pot of chili to test them out, too.
Duane and Lori.... Always enjoy the morning wake-up and let the critters out to feed and roam. The pigs seem to enjoy the scratching and petting, once fed. Being hearing impaired, didn't quite understand your comments about the turkeys and the yellow peppers? Interesting history of the tari beans. Amazing what one can learn every day, if open to such. I've had some bizarr experiences with my Mulberrys. I'll email you later about this. Where can I get the washing board you used in your outside sink, to rinse the peppers? Cheers.....
Hey Tony! The animals are really becoming the life blood of the farm and we really enjoy our time with them..usually! That comment about the turkeys was sort of garbled, but they had broken off a couple of pepper branches and I was commenting on it. The strainer we use is an Amazon special. I'll link to it for you here; amzn.to/49rcSr5
Tepary are the only beans to survive this year, with the exception of some scarlet runners--a major shock because runners like high humidity and shade. Tepary are one of the best flour beans, rivaled only by pintos. Canyon grapes are a labuska. Best time to pick is after a hard frost, or let them get a little over-ripe. niio
Hey Martin! Glad to hear you're having success with these as well. We haven't tried the runners before, but I understand they grow like crazy for us as well.
@@EdgeofNowhereFarm Be nice of we have a green bean that was a tepary. Scarlet Runners are from the high mountains of Central America. Cool, damp, some frost, and are perennials where the root doesn't freeze. Very popular in Great Britain and much of northern Europe. Italian broad beans are crossed with them and more heat resistant.
Estou encantada com o capricho e empenho de vocês na fazenda e da relação que vocês têm, parabéns! Vocês comentaram sobre plantas que vão bem em sua região e me lembrei de falar sobre uma planta que é do México, mas está se saindo muito bem no semiárido do Brasil, que é o cactus chamado de palma forrageira. Alguns criadores de cabras e vacas, estão usando para alimentação dos animais ( até 60% da alimentação). Nomes científico-Opuntia ficcus-indica - Nopalea cochinillifera - Opuntia spp ( orelha de elefante) ❤ Não sei se vocês já conhecem como planta que serve de alimentação e também como planta recuperadora de solos.
Looks great guys - the wife just asked about the tepary beans - as she has never heard of them and neither have I for that matter. She would love to see some cooking vid's from you both with them! Where did you get your seeds? Thx :)
We do plan on getting more cooking content up on the other channel and these will definitely be part of that. We bought these from nativeseeds.org. They're a bit pricey for 25 seeds, but once you get them to take you'll have plenty of seed stock for the rest of your life!
Thanks!! I got my clumping onions from them a while back and have these on a list for future buys! Any idea why the Tipary bean is not a main stream mentioned bean? She's big into cooking and nutrition and was just curious of your reply versus the webs! @@EdgeofNowhereFarm
@@robb4866 I can only assume it's because they're not mass produced. They do tend to have smaller beans, so processing takes a bit longer. That would drive the commercial price up. Not sure otherwise. As for nutrition, they're a bean, so it's a double edged sword. High fiber and some antioxidants, but also some "anti-nutrients" that have to be dealt with when cooking them. Supposedly there's some variation to flavor and texture based on the color of the bean, so we may test that out a bit.
We haven't tried them that way yet, but we will eventually give them a try. They are not sweet at all, so I'm guessing more like a traditional string bean.
We get those from Uline; www.uline.com/Product/Detail/S-19366/Drum-Covers-and-Lids/Rigid-Drum-Cover-55-Gallon-Closed-Top There are 2 types, one for a closed top and one for an open top. The closed top version is what fits the plastic barrels that are designed to store liquids. These are usually a LOT less expensive than the open top, so we just cut the lids off and these fit right on top. Combined they're about half the price of an open top barrel!
Hello again. I think you said before that your ducks wings don't need to be clipped because of the species that they are, but are your turkeys wings clipped? I'm always concerned about the birds flying away. Lastly, do you sell your Moringa seeds because I'm looking to get a few. Thanks!
We don't clip the ducks wings as all but 2 of them are not able to fly (the 2 that can are part of the group, so they don't try to fly away). The turkeys got their wings clipped last weekend, because they would wander the whole neighborhood if given the chance! We do plan on selling Moringa seeds in the Spring, so be sure to join our customer email list through the website.
Yes! We use them regularly in cooking throughout the year, especially for simple dishes like beans and rice. Of course, we also use them to seed new plants each Spring.
Yes, they are annual and die back during the Winter months. However, they do tend to re-seed themselves really well. Most of our plants this season are volunteers from last season.

Y’all’s homestead gives me so much hope. I live in the west Texas Oilfields where it is so hard to grow anything.
Regions like ours have their challenges, but there are advantages also. Fewer pests and diseases can make a big difference!

Thank you for featuring a couple of area natives that can handle the hot weather. Your turkeys are super cute, and a bit mischievous too.
We've been very happy with the performance of these beans. Oh and the turkeys are little....well....turkeys!

Waz uuuuuuuuup edge. love your videos so much.sending all the love from gilbert az ✌️
Woohoo!! Glad you're enjoying the content. These days we're all enjoying this beautiful Fall weather!!
thxs for the videos
Your welcome, glad you enjoyed it!
I've been using the (ish) a bit more lately.😊
Lol, we tend to use it all the time 😂
Eline emeğine sağlık bu güzel video için kolay gelsin hayırlı işler....👍👍👍👍
Mesut'a teşekkür ederim. Türkiye'de her şeyin yolunda olmasını diliyorum.
I noticed that the goats have matured. They used to storm out ready to play.
They are definitely starting to mature. We're trying to decide whether or not to breed them this year.
Duane... thanks for the info. Just ordered the strainer.
It's definitely a winner. Especially for a quick veggie or fruit wash.

What do Tepary beans taste like...and how would you prepare them?
We haven't had them yet, but we do plan on getting a few recipes out there on the other channel this Winter!
I have had chile plants last 7 years in pots next to patio with no protection . They jus5 want to live
That's good to hear. We're hoping these will last us a few years before having to be replanted!

Can you eat Tepary pods when young/tender
We haven't tried them that way yet, but we will eventually give them a try. They are not sweet at all, so I'm guessing more like a traditional string bean.
Who makes the yellow lids for your blue barrels? Where do you get them from? Thanks.

Do the turkeys stay inside that fence?
Hey Kylan. I assume you're talking about the T-giving turkeys? If so, no they don't attempt the flight over the fence as they are too heavy to get much lift. The heritage turkeys are a different story and very capable of flight over the fence, so we clip their wings each season after they're done molting.
@@EdgeofNowhereFarm perfect answer to both questions! Lol thanks again!
Will the pigs pretty much try to eat anything you give them?
For the most part, yes. We try pretty much everything unless we know it's toxic.
Have the ducks got a real pond .
No, not yet at least. Still trying to figure that one out. They actually spend most of their day wandering the farm in search of bugs and lounging in the shade.
