EDEN Great Northern Beans are organically grown in nutrient rich vital soil on family farms committed to a clean environment and the most nutritious, life encouraging food. The beans are soaked overnight and cooked with purified water and a bit of kombu sea vegetable that softens and brings out their flavor. No salt added.

EDEN Great Northern Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) are a heritage New World variety that appeared in America about 300 years ago and probably had its roots in Europe. They are seeds of the common green bean, fully matured and dried. Great Northerns are medium sized, white, oval shaped, larger and more elongated than navy beans. They thrive in the rich soil and moderate climate of the Midwest.

EDEN Beans have twice received the highest ranking in comparisons of brands by Nutrition Action Healthletter, most recently in 1999. Every flavor of EDEN beans was recognized as having superior nutrition including high fiber and low sodium. The study gave a special attention to EDEN's "delicious … healthy seasoned beans that you can eat right out of the can."

EDEN Beans are the most delicious and nourishing because they're grown in living soil free of pesticides, herbicides and chemical fertilizers for decades. These organically grown beans are perfect food. Commercial canners put chemicals in with beans to harden the skins so that they won’t fall apart in the can as they cook. They also add a chemical to hold the color. Our organic beans come out perfect with none of these additives. Because of the vital soil that produces them, their much higher mineral content and stronger skins allow them to be cooked without need of processing chemicals, and their vibrant colors hold fast. Our cannery, Meridian Foods located in East central Indiana has a long standing reputation for putting out cooked canned beans of a better quality, fill, and finish than any other cannery in the United States.

EDEN Great Northern Beans are a most satisfying source of high quality vegetable protein, with very little fat. They are an excellent source of dietary fiber, providing 31 percent of the daily recommended value per serving. They are also a good source of thiamin (B1), phosphorus, magnesium, and zinc, and provide potassium, calcium, iron, riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3) and folate (B9).
