Exceptionally delicious, Libby's Cut Green Beans are a tasty and versatile vegetable known as "snap beans" for the crisp snapping sound they make when bent and snapped into tasty bite sized pieces. Libby's green bean cultivars include descendants of the famed "Blue Lake" variety selected for exceptional taste and crisp-tender texture. Libby's Cut Green Beans start as fresh plump, firm pods and then are cut into bite-sized lengths for a deliciously mild, subtly sweet flavor and crisp-tender texture. We prepare Libby's Green Beans within hours of fresh harvesting them and just miles from where they are grown to seal in Farm Fresh Goodness. We put just our finest Cut Green Beans in every can.

Farm-to-Table, Grown & Made in the USA. Libby's Cut Green Beans are cultivated in the U.S. heartland by multigenerational, U.S. farmers on family-owned farms located primarily Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, New York and Wisconsin. This is the prime growing region for Green Beans with its fertile soil and ideal combination of sun and rain fall. Once harvested our green beans travel just miles and are prepared in state-of-the art, FDA inspected facilities within hours of being picked! Our Green Beans are seasonally grown and harvested fresh at the peak of ripeness. "Seasonally grown" means that every year, typically in late April-May, we plant our Green Beans and then let them grow for until June when the harvest begins. Green Beans have a longer season than peas. In a normal year all of our Green Beans are harvested and prepared, sealing in their naturally deliciously mild, subtly sweet flavor and tender-crisp texture by September!
