Pretty awesome @Blue-Jay ! 45 years And I grew both of those this summer!

Welcome @heartsong111! Don't those blue beans just steal your heart!? Have you grown Sacre Blue? I think that is my favorite blue bean. Blue & White of Bernardo is closely tied with it though.

I have not yet tried that one. I just bought some Rosa's Beans from Small House Farm. Though, it looks like they can be quite dark when fully ready.

I thought this was the cutest little thing. A seed saving friend did an online course where they learned to use some Suno program for making AI generated songs, I have no idea how this works, I've never even dialed a cell phone, but I think she just plugged in a couple key words, selected a few themes and made up this song for me & my seed ark website and the beans! Couple of the AI lyrics are off, but for the most part I thought this was pretty neat! If you think of 'my life' as an extension of my seed ark....

I've grown that one too! lol Can you tell I like blue beans? It is definitely blue when young and not quite dried. It's really productive variety, and a nice perk is it's a snap bean. Most blue beans are for dry use.

Thank you heirloomgal. It's a pretty neat feeling when I accidentally come across a small seed company selling maybe one or two of my original beans. Sometimes someone from maybe in Europe and the person doesn't know me will post a bean on Facebook of what they grew the past season. It will be one of my named beans again. To see a bean I discovered in my garden that I thought something of and then to see that it is indeed being enjoyed by others is a nice experience. I hope that you will have that happen for you one day.

What a catchy tune… I really liked that serenade about beans and the gardeners that save and grow them.

I'm jealous I want a song LOL ! Really actually that is really neat. I loved the song, catchy and lyrics I thought are brilliant.

It's amazing what that program can do! She told me it's easy to get lost in there having fun making songs. She's really into Jerusalem artichokes and she made a really cute one about them and her own website, Garden Faerie Seeds. Haha, not easy to have a song lyric with 'Jerusalem artichokes' in it, but AI managed to do it - it sings a bit faster for those words! The modern world, what a place!

Ok @Blue-Jay DD & I had a blast trying to figure out how this thing works so we could make you a song. We had no idea how this program functions, I thought the prompts were suggestions not actual lyrics, and I picked a few words that didn't fit real good (you'll see I hijacked some words from you as well!!), and I guess you have to build a chorus yourself (didn't know that) so it's short. Not as easy to build a song as it seems! But AI took our scrap material and made something not too bad -- so now you can say you have a song! We called it 'Bean Fever'....

I listened to it today.Thank you very much for that. Pretty neat. Me and my Blue Jay bean (sweet child of the sun) are now in song. Wow ! who would have ever thought my Blue Jay bean would rise to these heights LOL !

I watched the Tutorial on YouTube last night and the guy puts lryics, Choruses, and a bridge to create his songs. When I got time I will try my hand at it.
