I am growing beans from seeds a friend gave me. They have climbed and spread and the purple flowers produce many pods, which we are eating. They don't appear to be scarlett or hiacynth climbing beans, but have a similar habit. I'd like advice for using them - freezing or using in preserves. Thank you
