Green round beans, better quality and better price, $NZ10/kg - Qiubo Su

Qiubo (David) from Half Moon Bay

Hi All,

(update at the morning of 22/12/2025 - Even though my better quality beans are at a lot better price than those you can find in any supermarket, I realize that $NZ10/kg for my beans is still unaffordable by a lot of people. In this case, I'd like to keep them for myself to consume, with a better cooking method, e.g. spicy hot steam-pot. I make my own effort, do extensive research and innovate greatly to get such an excellent bean vegetable planting result, I can't give it any better price than $NZ10, and hope all of you understand. Wish you a Merry Xmas & Happy New Year !)

Good afternoon.

I harvested a lot of beans this morning and sorted 3+ kgs into a cardboard box (see the one photo taken today). If interested to buy, please come to 20 Regia Close, Half Moon Bay ASAP for the fresh beans.

I'm at home all day today.

Merry Xmas & Happy New Year !

Best regards,
Qiubo Su

(update at 10/12/2025 - The green round beans starts to be available for sale now, its price is $10/kg, better quality and better price than that of the same category in the superstores. Please ignore the information in below paragraphs which aren't for now. Thanks and have a great Xmas)

(update at 01/07/2025 - yesterday morning I harvested a lot of vegetables from the front yard vegi planting area inside the garden of my property, see the photo taken yesterday)

(update at 24/06/2025 - I harvested a lot of vegetables yesterday from the front yard vegi planting area inside the garden of my property, slightly more than the amount I harvested 10 days ago. However the vegetables at the front yard vegi planting area don't look less, and the vegetables at the backyard area become more and more dense. See the photos taken yesterday)

(update at 14/06/2025 - today I harvested a lot of vegetables from the vegi planting area in the front yard of my property. It took me a couple of hours to harvest, clean, 1st wash with rain water harvested inside the large water tank, 2nd wash with the tap water in my kitchen, then cook them all with the method I was used to, see the attached photos. If any interested people come, you will notice the vegetables at the vegi planting area next to the front yard are becoming less and less, but the vegetables at the backyard vegi planting area are still growing densely. I have already started to cultivate vegi seedlings for the next round vegi planting at the front yard vegi planting area. A short while later, it is time to start to harvest the vegetables planted at the backyard of my property. Even though planting vegetables within a small section of the land, with proper planning, it is achievable to have enough vegetables supply all year round)

The vegetables of Asian Pak Choy growing in my garden are ready for harvesting sooner or later, see the photos among those I took on the morning of 11th June. Last vegi planting season, there were people among you coming to purchase the vegetables I growed in my garden after I published a post here.  Now I'm publishing a post here again.

When any interested people come, please tell me the best price you can get from the popular big branded supermarkets, I will give you 2/3 of the price for the same variety of vegetables listed on the same day. Please bring your own bag, schedule about 30 mins when you're here, let's harvest together, briefly wash off the soil sticky on the vegetables dug out, and weigh it afterwards.

For example, if the best price for the same varieties of vegetables listed on the same day you can get from the popular big branded supermarkets is $12 for 3 kgs, I only charge you $8.

(Note: I'm a vegetables lover, able to consume large quantity of vegetables in a very short period of time with the hot spicy steam-boat cooking method, but considering that there are people out there love vegetables as well and are interested in saving money, I couldn't bear to let myself alone to "waste" the results of my hard work in growing vegetables, so I'd like to list it here for someone interested)

Location: Half Moon Bay, Auckland
