Perennial Beans with Ken Asmus

In this episode I'm talking to Ken Asmus of Oikos Tree Crops about perennial beans. Ken has been growing andbreeding perennial food plants since the 1970s and has developed many interesting populations of several species. We talk Thicket Beans (Phaseolus polystachios), how they can hybridize with Lima Beans (Phaseolus lunatus) as well as Peashubs (Caragana spp) and Hog Peanut (Amphicarpaea bracteata).
