| Notes: | Label source: Like butter beans. The Papago bean has been grown for hundreds of years by the native people of the Sonoran Desert. In fact, the Papagos have been some of the best farmers of beans that the world has ever known, growing them in the hot su, mmer heat with the flash flood water after desert rains. They are grown today at Santa Cruz Farm on the Papago reservation. They are a good staple product with protein, energy, vitamins and minerals all in one food. They are both white and brown and ca, n be prepared in a vaiety of ways. (Recipes included in pot) | ||||
