Planting Greenbeans For A Fall Crop Pt2
Henry and Irene have been living off grid full time since 2005 on a 43 acre off grid homestead in the high desert of Northern Arizona. Situated at 5280′ elevation, we enjoy four seasons of beautiful scenery and weather about 60 miles south of the Grand Canyon.
We grow most of our green beans, peppers, yellow beans, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, squash, garlic, and herbs. Specialty crops like asparagus, sun chokes, and lavender are supplemented by foraged foods including wild ground cherries, prickly pear, and other native plants.
Electricity is made using solar panels and one 400W wind generator. We power our buildings in two groups: Irene’s studio by itself, and house infrastructure: house, greenhouse, and workshops.
Thanks for joining us on our continuing journey.
Take care.
Henry & Irene

Thanks for sharing! I haven't tried mid summer planting before. Have you ever planted yard long beans? Mine are doing very well, and hopefully will keep producing until frost. They are serious climbers, and very productive. 🌞🏜️
Anybody who expects picture perfect gardens right away has got rocks in their heads!! It really doesn't happen that way!! Cheers!!
Thanks Irene, green beans are so nice, it will be great to follow the growth
Good morning henry and irene. The garden spot i inherited was just created outside. It was dug up a foot or so deep and had bags and bags of compost and peat moss put into the area. Ive now began to add my own touch to it and have added some ruts between the rows to create water canals so i only have to put the hose in one spot while water fills up the area to water from below.
Hi! Y'all take care.
have a nice weekeend
stay cool yal
Irene – your green beans will be growing nicely by the time you get home. I don’t think I will put in a fall garden. Kinda getting burned out. Going to take the winter off to sew. At least the plan for now! Price of food may change our minds. Safe travels!
