The Catalpa beans are not edible, but have several uses. Indians used many parts of the tree for medicines and some say they can be used to keep moles out of a yard.

Of course you can smoke it! I have found that the effects are better though if you let the dried beans soak in a bowl with some apple cider vinegar until it evaporates and dries the bean back out. Don't forget to break the bean into 3 or 4 1 1/2 or 2 inch pieces before soaking. Cut it up fine after the soak, and enjoy the nice smooth flavor!
