Hello Hive

It is finally time to eat 😁😁💃💃💃. Do you remember that our harvested beans, these is what they look like right after processing.
It was about a month ago when we were about the harvesting of this beans. We had planted different specie of beans and watch each of them grow independently. Some performed well while others did not

---

For those that did we had to sundry them a little more before the processing. For the previous year we had some good amount of the beans that produced well hence the processing wasn't done manually but for this year we engaged in manual processing as we do not have as much of the harvested beans. Processing involves pounding this pods inside mortar with pestle to break the pods and release the grains or we make use of sticks to beat this sac of beans.

After that we began to Winnowing the beans and clean it off the chaff.
The chaff has been some good food for our neighbors goat.

Even after the cleaning you can still see some of the beans inside the pods. It is not the total percentage of the beans that gets cleaned out at once but this is already clean enough for storage.

One thing we often don't forget to do is to share with our neighbors. It is a family tradition to share with our neighbors at home to appreciate God for the years harvest and for neighbors to join us in celebrating a fruitful year.

The beans as as clean as possible now left with a little of hand picking each time we want to cook this. The next step will be to preserve this in storage. I fellow hive friend has suggested using some harmless atones which I have gone and asking about it and how useful it can be for storing our crops. We will be storing some as food for next year while eating some portion of these portions of these consistently.
