They grow in a pod. I grow Anasazi beans every year, a type of ancient pinto bean.

I harvest them and finish drying them on sheets of newspaper or paper towels. Easy to grow, and much better than store bought . . . Especially if you keep it organic ! No chemical fertilizers, pesticides or weed sprays. Keep it natural, keep it healthy !
