BULK: Black Beans

$5.50

Certified Organic. We think of black beans as the gateway bean. They are worthy of sharing enthusiastically. There are hundreds of varieties of black beans. Some make richer stocks for cooks, some have better agronomic qualities for farmers. Some are prized for their fabric dying traits, creating an indigo-like hue.

The variety included here is a variety called Black Beard which farmer Peter Schiltz in Lawrenceville NY, nestled between the northern Adirondacks and the Saint Lawrence River. Peter chose to grow this variety due to its reputation as a higher-yielding resistant variety. We like it as it is among the black beans that create rich stocks (known as ‘pot liquor’) and maintains a satisfying texture somewhere between toothsome and creamy.

Our Values

Local

We believe supporting local builds a stronger community. We collectively support friends, neighbors, and colleagues to make and grow the things they love. In doing so, we get fresh goods made with care and we support a thriving local economy.
Seasonal

Seasons change fast in New England and we are committed to only selling what is available locally. We believe seasonal eating supports our farmers and connects us to place. When you buy from our market, you know you are eating in season.
Simple

Small farmers and small producers struggle to connect to you, the consumer. We want shopping local and supporting our neighbors to be easy and we believe Pip & Anchor does just that. All local, all season, all in one place.
