As far as beans go, yellow eyes are about as quintessentially Maine as lobstah or wild blueberries. The plump, creamy white beans sport a molasses-yellow mark around the hilum and are the business for authentic New England style baked beans. Kenearly is the variety of choice amongst a couple of different yellow-eye cultivars, known to keep its pods up off the ground and mature over a tighter harvest window. Wicked good eating! Early and productive.
