Experience a classic heirloom crop with Windsor Fava Bean Seeds, a time-tested variety cherished for its rich flavor, versatility, and ease of growth. Known as one of the oldest cultivated beans, Windsor fava beans have been a staple in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines for centuries. This variety stands out for its large, creamy-textured beans, perfect for soups, stews, or fresh eating. Windsor favas thrive in cool weather, making them ideal for early spring or fall planting, and their sturdy, upright plants are highly productive, with pods that contain 4-5 beans each. Unlike other fava varieties, Windsor beans are especially prized for their smooth, mild flavor and adaptability to diverse garden conditions. Whether you’re growing for fresh beans or dried storage, this heirloom delivers outstanding quality and yield.

PLANTING
Germination: 7-15 days

Seed Sowing Depth: 1.5” deep 

Sowing: Direct sow after your last spring frost date or in fall. Grows best in cooler weather of spring and fall. 

Harvest: If you want to enjoy the beans when they are fresh, just wait until the pods fill out, but harvest before the pods dry out. Or, if you're planning to use them as dried beans, let the pods dry out and then remove the beans from their pods. Store away in a cool, dry, dark place for long term storage.
