The navy bean received its name in the early 20th century, being a staple food of the United States Navy. These beans are small and creamy white in appearance, and are mild in flavour. Navy beans are suitable for low-cholesterol diets as they contain soluble fibre which may lower cholesterol, are low in fat, and contain no cholesterol.
These navy beans are grown here in Canada! At Fresh Acres, they grow their crops in harmony with natural ecological systems, utilizing composting, cover crops, green manures, and pasture-based growing methods.
