fellmoon π΄In the spirit of a nice saturday morning, thinking about a few things #permaculture 
(thx, @dch for setting this day on tracks 
)
Did you all know how amazing broad beans and field beans are??? Srsly, check them out!
You can get frost-hardy varieties and still pot them in october/november. Plant them out when they are ~10-15cm tall, if you harden them properly before they'll just be fine during the winter and you can get an early harvest in next years season.
Beans(as all legumes) are nitrogen-fixers so whatever you plant in succession does not need much fertilizer! Also beans are one of the very few foods that are high on protein (dried ~20%) and can be stored dry and cold up to several years without cooling.
You can also eat the young pods, the leaves and the flowers like salad - and what you don't like to eat makes great compost!
You can also plant beans as part of guilds around fruit trees to support them and bees love the flowers as well, how cool is that!?
(I have not planted beans indoor yet but I'm tempted to figure it out over the winter how if they like this 
)
