This is Jonah and me in the "squash lounge" with a bunch of bean seeds he grew for me at his educational farm in Brattleboro, VT. I sent him a small packet of each variety - mostly from 2009/2010! Fun facts about Jonah: he made the Queer Farmer Film Project and went to high school with my sister. #beanseeds #rarebeans #queerfarmer #geteokosomin #squashlounge #bottlegourd (at South West Philadelphia)
