The Broad Windsor Fava Bean is a classic heirloom variety prized for its large, flavorful beans.  This cool-season legume produces tall, upright plants that can reach up to 4 feet in height, yielding plump, flat pods filled with delicious beans.  Broad Windsor Fava Beans have a rich, nutty flavor and are a good source of protein and fiber, making them a healthy and satisfying addition to your diet. They can be enjoyed fresh, shelled, or dried for later use.

GROWING INSTRUCTIONS:
Direct sow seeds outdoors as soon as the soil can be worked in early spring. Plant seeds 2 inches deep and 6-8 inches apart in rows spaced about 2-3 feet apart. Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during germination and pod development. Fava beans are relatively drought-tolerant once established and can be harvested in about 75-90 days.
