I'm also a fan of Carol Deppe.
Last year I purchased "Withner's True Cornfield" Pole Beans from Peace Seedlings:

"Withner's True Cornfield" definitely outperformed the other "cornfield" beans that I planted. Last year in my corn plot, there was a lot of shade (as normal for a cornfield), and also a lot of weeds that I let grow into a jungle, and the other cornfield beans produced nothing. Withner's True Cornfield pushed through it all and produced well.
