I was thrilled when @stomp told me there were some beans peeking through our mass of vegetable foliage. I got out there this morning and hunted around (meaning looked in my 3' x 3' bean plantation) for ones that looked as if they were ready for picking and here's a pic of my 'haul'. I'm not in the same league/caliber as many 6-8 gardeners but it's a start.
