About Us
The Nebraska Dry Bean Growers Association, located in Gering, Nebraska, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping the more than 3,000 dry bean growers in Nebraska. The Association is a lobbying and supportive entity that continues to focus its efforts on assisting producers of dry beans, landowners, and on educating the public about the nutritional value of dry edible beans.
Each August, NDBGA and the University of Nebraska Research and Extension Center co-host the Dry Bean Field Tour, along with help from many loyal sponsors, to inform bean growers of ongoing research in herbicides, insecticides, DNA testing, water resources, equipment, and hundreds of other topics of interest to those who makes their livings growing dry edible beans. We are usually fortunate enough to have congressional or senatorial representative attend as a speaker.
In January each year, the Association hosts Bean Day with the help of our generous sponsors and the University of Nebraska. Vendors show their services and wares, door prizes are won, lunch is served, elections are held, speakers inform, the Association holds its annual meeting, old friends have a chance to catch up, and everyone relaxes and has a good time; harvest is over and it's not quite yet time to start thinking about planting!
