We like hummus. A can of organic Garbanzo Beans cost almost $1. Bulk beans are $1.69/lb. We'd like to grow our own but I think it's too late to plant.

I wonder if we sprout the beans like Mung beans, would that help put us ahead? Sprout them, then plant them? Or would they sprout just as quickly in the ground?

If we don't do the shopping, we won't have anything for dinner. And I've invited this tiny ad:
