The Midwest Dry Bean Coalition recently elected new officers for 2024 to lead the new organization. The group aims to advocate and help identify better markets for dry bean producers.
The aim of the Midwest Dry Bean Coalition is tell the story about their product and to emphasize the way edible beans make a positive difference in the lives of consumers, from the ground up.
Several speakers and panels at the annual Northarvest Bean Day talked about the health benefits of dry edible beans and the work underway to promote the crop domestically and internationally.
