Heirloom beans, from Napa Valley to your mailbox

- Rancho Gordo, in California's Napa Valley, doesn't sell you garden-variety beans. Their heirloom beans, many from small Mexican villages where the seeds are revered like old family recipes, are a hit with upscale restaurants and a mail-order clientele. Correspondent Jonathan Vigliotti asks owner Steve Sando to spill the beans about his success.

I wish they covered more about the partnership formed with farmers in Mexico. Supporting farmers by creating a market for them to pre-sell their entire harvest as a way of preserving local traditions is a business model that I support wholeheartedly.
I record Sunday morning and I had set down to watch it and remembered I needed to soak my beans. Came back to the TV and guess who was on the Sunday Morning....Steve with Rancho Gordo
I'm late to the party, but I have to say that Rancho Gordo beans are not some gimmick. I thought I didn't like beans, but these are a game changer. I'm a newbie and I'm already addicted. I've introduced other people to these beans and everyone is sold.
This CBS piece was very nice, but leaves the impression that you have to be in the bean club to order beans, which is not the case.
Lovely. Sure your Mom is smiling.
Bring them all back!!! Can they all grow? Wonderful!!! Magic beans!!
Wow..I live in México and I just go to the market to find all that variety or most of it at least...I guess we are very lucky to not need a club to enjoy it.
Instead of the last written statement about gas, why not offer more productive, up-to-date, and helpful information about soaking the beans before cooking to avoid it. Great segment until that unfortunate last bit.
Yeah I felt that last bit came out of nowhere and was a bit anticlimactic to the whole video.
Well cooked legumes only give you gas when you aren’t use to taking in that much fiber. After around 8 weeks it should go away
Now I’ll be farting uniquely to those beans.
One of my favorite places to buy heirloom variety of beans (we eat a lot of beans) is Rancho Gordo over in Napa. Was overjoyed to see todays CBS Sunday Morning show had this nice segment on them.
Love Rancho Gordo products!!!
lol this guy is about to get wrecked in the best way possible, my wife and I just ordered six pounds of his beans, for Chrimbo gifts, plus some for us.
In India we use hing w our lentils/beans. That helps w the gassy/bloaty problem! Try it.
What is “hing”?
Hing aka asafoetida is a powder made from a tree resin.
Check out the npr article...

@@kcannon it's resin of a plant. and we use it in powder form. it is quite a strong smell and taste but literally every indian dish has it and i dont think i even know what a dish without it tastes like.
not sure where you live but it should be available online...
great story. i love beans. maybe ill make spot in my garden for some heirloom beans next year.
Beans are a health food.
Wow
💖😍🌱😋💕🤤🌱😍💖
Beans! Beans! The magical fruit!
The more you eat the more you toOt!
The more you toOt; the BETTER you feel,
so eat beans with every meaL!
Ha! you're right, Jessica! I just wonder tho are they the Magical fruit, or the Musical fruit?? Lolol
Yes! This was the song we sang as a child farting from the chili beans. I'm very excited about these Legumes; I haven't tasted the heirloom variety. Maybe, someday I will be able to enjoy those beans?... I felt the same way about the adverb choice. I think, it was magical because of the nursery story, "Jack in the Bean Stalk." Flatulence was giggley amusement to our ears. Plus, beans are healthy! I still find food exciting and fun, because of child like wonder, which never fades, through I do age. #methanefuntimesofyore
i like please!!!!!!!! can this grow in Rwanda
Beans ...beans the musical fruit....
You can fix the gas with adding garlic 🧄
Garlic heals the world!

This guy is if San Francisco was a person.
There's more to this story that they aren't talking about. They make this guy out to be a folksy backyard gardener. But there's no way he's servicing an 11,000-member club with a few vines in his yard. What/where's the rest of the operation?
Happy to answer any questions you have.
Production is mostly in California, Oregon, Washington, and some in Mexico.
The trial gardens outside of my home were used in the footage.
I guess the part about not sharing his sources, many of whom are small farmers in Mexico, evaded you? 🤦🏼♀
@@HotVoodooWitch Yes. He's reselling other people's labor. Why not show them?
@@andybaldman most vendors "resell other people's labor." This was a few minutes' blurb on TV, not a documentary. He buys from MANY farmers. Is he supposed to show them all? He didn't produce this, his local news affiliate did--take it up with them. I doubt they had the budget to start traveling throughout rural Mexico.
The penitent force hypothetically name because pig chronologically rule on a royal voyage. fixed, various pet
Why are you asking white people about beans? He told you himself to ask Mexicans. Lol
Oh so this is what Gavin Newsom was eating without a mask?
Why emulate the image of Steve Bannon
Wow. Sorry to give off a Steve Bannon vibe.
@@ranchogordo_sando You do not give off a Bannon vibe. Some commenters in this thread are an embarrassment to the species, lol. You are very patient.
Sadly, i wanted to love these beans. But they really aren’t that delicious. (I went to cooking school, so I know how to cook legumes.) My friends shared some Oregon small farmer up heirloom beans and they were so much better. So buy a little try, don’t be like me. I spent $150 on these beans and they are meh.
Taste is clearly a subjective thing. I've been a bean club member for a few years now, and in that entire time, I've only come across one variety that didn't appeal to me. Thanks to Rancho Gordo, my family happily eats beans a few times a week and I've incorporated dozens of new recipes into my repertoire.
@@bronx58 I am happy that you enjoy the legumes.
Regina, can you recommend some bean farmers in oregon , please?
Meh? Okay thanks for the heads up. I’ll keep ordering mine from the big grower in my state.
@@deserthorsedude ....I think you mean @Milou
I don’t believe there’s anything special about these beans.
Yep. It's just marketing. Many people will insist they taste better because they paid more for them, in some 'exclusive' club.
Have you had them? Why are you so invested in criticizing what I do without asking questions? It seems like a waste of time.
We're going on 20 years of slow, steady growth. Early on I realized they weren't for everybody but it's fun dealing with "bean people" who get what we're doing.
Gay beans.
Proudly gay!
@@ranchogordo_sando Gross.
@@ranchogordo_sando one wonders what would prompt someone to label legumes (or, for that matter, any other food) according to sexual preferences. Some people are just jerks.
To drive up the price/desire they make an exclusive club gimmicks like this from Rancho Gordo is a desperate poly from a desperate seller to push product.
Beans in wine country is not that amazing since beans have lots of protein & protein minimizes the effects of alcohol .
I'm sorry but you don't have this quite right.
We've been around for almost 20 years.
I thought it would be funny to have a bean club since everyone here has a wine club.
That's it! Nothing nefarious. Nothing even all that clever.
We're a lot of things but we're not desperate.
@@ranchogordo_sando in addition, it's not as though non-members (who I'm sure comprise the majority of your customer base) can't order beans, which is what I did until a membership spot opened up.
