Pink Pole

Donated to SSE in 1981 by John Withee of the Wanigan Associates. Withee originally received it from bean collector Burt Berrier of Canon City, CO sometime before Berrier's passing in 1978. SSE does not know how Berrier acquired this bean, but over a span of about 30 years, Berrier accumulated a collection of about 150 bean varieties, some from the farmers he met in his job as a sales and service man of farm machinery.
