Runner beans are predominately grown by our Kenya and Guatemala growers. Runner beans are a good source of vitamin C, folic acid, protein and fiber.
Also, 100 grams of steamed beans contain less than 20 calories. Their Latin name is ‘Phaseolus Coccineus’ initially brought to the British Isles in the seventeenth century by John Tradescant, who was the gardener to King Charles I. They were originally grown as a decorative plant in Britain, before being grown for food.
