Most beans and peas are Open Pollinated (OP), meaning that they are stabilized, non-hybrid seeds. In other words, you can save the seeds from one year to the next, and plant them again. Many varieties are classified as heirloom beans as well, having been developed by our ancestors and having stood the test of time. Some of our modern beans and peas have truly ancient origins.
