Serve cooked purple beans cold as a part of a salad, steam or boil them until just cooked. Underneath the purple shell is the same crisp translucent green flesh and pale lime green peas.

Purple beans have a flavor that matches that of a French green bean with grassy notes and a sweet finish. Once cooked, the violet hues fade to green, leaving the purple bean to appear as common as a green bean.

About Diamond Island Farm

Diamond Island Farm is an ecologically responsible, single-man operation on the North Shore of Oʻahu that has been feeding the community delicious organic produce since 2017. The farm is run by owner and lead farmer, Carey Bonn, who produces a variety of leafy greens as well as other produce including tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplant, cabbage, broccoli, and more.

In his early days on Oʻahu, as he regularly drove from town to the North Shore to surf, Carey was inspired by all the farmland that could be seen from Wahiawa to Mokulēʻia and over to Kahuku. Seeing the farmland reawakened an interest in agriculture that went mostly unrealized after graduating from the University of Oregon where he studied Environmental Studies and Sociology. He was accepted into the GoFarm training program on the North Shore in 2017 which gave him a jumpstart into farming full-time.
