Mavis’ Favorite Things Giveaway – Rancho Gordo Beans and Hearth and Harrow Dish Towels

By Mavis Butterfield on -

 

UPDATE: This Giveaway is now closed.

Hello Wednesday! 

As a way of giving back and thanking you for showing up here on this crazy little blog of mine, whether it’s everyday or every week or just when you need to pop by for a recipe, I thought it would be fun to give away 6 unique gifts this holiday season that have brought me a bit of happiness over the past year.

Normally I start my annual giveaway series in December, but this year I decided to move the date up a bit to make sure all the giveaway boxes have plenty of time to arrive and don’t get caught up in the holiday mailing rush. 

Some of the giveaways will be locally made products we’ve discovered since moving to Maine, some will be handmade, and few will be something I’ve recently discovered and fell in love with and well, just had to share. 

There will be 3 giveaways this week, and 3 next week. The winners will be announced on Tuesday, November 16th, 2021. You may enter each giveaway one time. 

I am SO EXCITED about this years giveaways!

Thanks for being a part of this blog, and keeping the conversation going.

Mavis’ Favorite Things Giveaway – Day  1 – Rancho Gordo Beans and Hearth and Harrow Dish Towels

I think it’s been pretty well documented here on the blog that I love beans, and so after reader Mel told me about her purchase from Rancho Gordo Bean Company in Napa, California last year, I decided to place an order for a few bean varieties I had never tried before. And well, I was impressed!

Rancho Gordo has a HUGE selection of old fashioned, heirloom beans and they are so popular, they even have a waitlist for some of their bean varieties! How crazy is that? 

Another thing I fell in love with this year were the organic dish towels from Hearth and Harrow out of Rockport, Maine. 

Two lucky people will each win a set of 6 varieties of Rancho Gordo Beans and 2 Matching Tea Towels from Hearth and Harrow. Wahoo!

The six types of beans in this giveaway are:

    Lobster please. If I’m being honest though the beans are what I’m most excited about in this giveaway.

  5. Toni Wood says

    Wow! I’ve been reading your blog since you first met Mrs HB!!! I would love the lobster set of towels.

  6. Shana Harbeintner says

    I would love the chicken towels please! Thanks for all your inspiration. I have only commented once through all these years but I love to follow your journey and make your recipes here in COLD, COLD Minnesota.

  7. Denise T Brandon says

    Oh, I’m going to have to order some of those beans! I like both towels, but I would choose the chicken if I won! Thank you for your generosity in this offer!

  8. Mallory Lemieux says

    Thank you for spreading some local love Mavis, from a fellow Main’ah! I would love the chicken dishtowels!

  12. Linda Melloncamp says

    How sweet and generous of you! If I’m lucky enough to win, I’d love the Chicken Towels…as we have a few chickens ourselves.

  13. Karen says

    Chickens! Always chickens. I love your blog, your experience with the low-iodine diet has helped me as I adjust to a low-sodium regime.

  17. Nat says

    Chickens! Mavis, I discovered your blog a few months ago and it quickly became my favorite. Thank you for letting us into your life ❤️

  19. Trish R. says

    Chickens or lobsters? Lobsters or chickens? Chicksters or lobens? Either would be good, both have different meanings to me, plus it might be fun to sport some lobster towels while living in the country, but my chicken friends might disown me if I didn’t get the chicken towels… Surprise me?

  21. Meg C says

    I am a daily reader – thank you for sharing your life with us!
    I’m in the “chicken” camp for towel design!

  22. Rosemary Calhoun says

    Since we bought the granddaughter 6 baby chicks about 6 weeks ago (that are growing up quick), I would love the chicken towels!

  23. Linda says

    Beans and chickens are two of my favorite things.

    Thanks for the chance to win a give away and for always providing a fun read.

    • Michelle Stahnke says

      I LOVE Rancho Gordo beans and the tea towels are gorgeous. Thanks, Mavis! I’d choose the chicken towels because they look like my Barred Plymouth Rocks!

  26. Pam E-P says

    They’re both really cute but I love the ocean so definitely the lobsters! Thanks for informing and entertaining us!

  27. Peggy says

    Chickens! My daughter has become Crazy Chicken Lady (seriously, she tucked a pair of chicks into a tote and took them to Tractor Supply with her!). And I love beans!

  28. Nancy Settel says

    oh the chicken towels please but what I am really geeked to try is the beans. 5 years ago because of my husband’s heart attack and stroke they put him on Dr. Dean Ornish diet and so over that time we have had plenty of beans but NOTHING like these. We have had only the same old same old dry beans you can buy at the grocery store. Just the kick in the butt I need to try something different. So kind of you to do this.

  44. Melissa says

    I would choose either, but the lobster if you made me choose. 😉 I’m most excited about the beans. Thanks for the giveaway!

  45. Kari says

    They are both adorable, but I think I’d have to go with the chickens. What a fun give-a-way!!

  50. Lissa says

    Chickens….cluck, cluck, cluck. Rancho Gordo are the best. Just finishing up some of the pintos.
    Thanks for this fun give-away.

  56. Julie says

    Both dish towels are lovely but the chickens fit more for my kitchen so, I’m saying chicken. Thank you for always posting winners with the recipes. I am really enjoying the Maple Dijon Chicken right now.

  60. Vanessa Strawder says

    I first started reading your blog when I was looking for a recipe to use blueberries and I came across your Triple Berry Cornmeal Cake (2012)- been following since! Love the beans and dish towels!

  62. JANET E DUNCAN says

    I’d love the chicken towels since my husband grew up on a farm and raised chickens (and pigs.)

  65. Elle says

    I come here every day and have for several years! Love the gifting and would love the lobster towels since I live out West where lobster rolls don’t happen.

    Thank you!

  66. laura says

    Chickens for me please!!

    Thanks again for your blog. Chicken all the way.

  87. Teresa Lantz says

    I’m looking forward to some beans and cornbread now that the weather is turning colder. I’d love the chicken towels!

  93. Deborah says

    MAVIS,
    I would really love the chicken towels. Way back when I was raising my 4 kids we lived on a farm and raised chickens and goats. I do miss having animals but not doable at this time in my life.

  94. Linda says

    A dear friend of mine is on the Rancho Gordo Bean monthly mailing list. I am anxious to try them. Chicken towels please.

  95. Sue R. says

    Chickens, please! You should try Rancho Gordo Royal Corona beans (no joke about the name!). They are delicious–and huge!! Thanks for the giveaway.

  98. Camille Cervantes says

    I love the chicken towels! The beans look pretty good too. Thanks for the giveaway.

  106. CSSgardens says

    Being a country girl living in the Northern Neck of VA I have plenty of chickens, but I do love eating lobster. So…..lobster towels please!

  107. Jennifer S. says

    Chickens! Because we love the little bockers around here! But really, I’m looking at those beans…yum!

  123. Kathy G. says

    I’m excited about this because I love love love Rancho Gordo beans and now I don’t want to buy any beans except Rancho Gordo. They do not disappoint! I’d love the lobster towels. They would cheer up my midwestern kitchen this winter.

  124. Janet says

    BAWK BAWK!!!!! Chickens!!!!!!!
    I live in Western Washington and have followed you daily for years!!!!!!

  126. Katie C says

    I’ve been eyeing those beautiful beans since you mentioned them. Would love the chicken towels, please, if I’m one of the lucky winners

    Thanks for such an awesome blog. I look forward to reading it every day

  132. Lori B says

    I would be so excited to win either one. If I have to pick I would say lobster, but really that’s just because everyone seems to want the chickens. Either one is adorable!

  136. Mama Cook says

    Chickens of course! (I do love that so many readers are more excited about beans! Of course I thought- could you plant a few?!)

  139. Rose Wilson says

    Love your blog. Have followed you cross country and you’ve really inspired my gardening adventures! Love the chicken towels!

  140. Ju says

    Lobsters! And I am so excited to try the beans. I love to try new varieties.

    Thank you so much for your blog. I love reading it everyday.

  141. Karla Carter says

    Chicken towels! Will you be adding chickens to Camp Butterfield? I love reading your blog, and have enjoyed many of the recipes you’ve shared. Thanks!

  142. Rebecca in MD says

    I would love the lobster towels, and I have been wanting to try the Rancho Gordo beans.

    Thank you for this give-away!

  146. Diana says

    Definitely chicken towels! I have had chickens since I was three years old! When I was little my chickens were my pets like a dog. I took them for walks and tried to bring them in the house.

  150. Annette says

    Chickens please! I’ve been chicken-sitting for my neighbors when they leave town, so trying to learn about them. I recently learned that the only fruit or vegetable not to give them is citrus.

  156. Karen J says

    Chickens for sure!
    I’ve been following your blog since your Washington state days. I am a western Washington resident myself and love reading about your life in Maine.

  159. JoAnn Moran says

    I love your blog and your unique giveaways. I have been wanting to experiment more with dried beans this winter. I love the idea and the towels. I just bought some dried navy beans. I am going to make soup this weekend. Do I need to pre-soak them? Would love to see some more bean recipes on your blog. Tried your chicken salad – delicious. Also good with dried cherries. Take care and stay healthy.

  165. Angie says

    Love the idea of trying new, to our family, beans, we tend to stick with the grocery store variety. If I were to choose between the towels, I would go lobster, they are more unique for our west coast area. Thank you for sharing!

  169. Patty Ryan says

    Mavis-
    I’m flexible! Either the chickens or lobsters would be fine with me. I enjoy reading your blog….I love to read about all of your adventures and your pragmatic attitude is refreshing.

  177. angie says

    I’d love either set of towels, but if i must choose so as to not get disqualified I choose lobsters!

  178. Michele says

    I have tried many types of lentils, but never black caviar. All the beans sound delicious! The chicken towel reminds me of my friendliest chicken, Buffy, so the chicken towel it is! Thank you!!

  181. KC says

    Chicken! (and beans) (you’ve never heard of someone having lobsters and beans, right? So chicken just makes more sense…)

  187. Amary Right says

    The lobster towels would be my choice. Thank you so much for the opportunity! Absolutely love reading your New England adventures.

  193. Shelley G. says

    I’m more excited about the beans so you can surprise me with the towels. I love them both!

  198. Denise B says

    Chickens, please. Mavis I love checking your each day. Even if my daughter looks at me funny when I say I’m reading a blog.

  207. Jeri Pettingill says

    Chickens, please. But I would love to try the Moro beans. We lived in Ecuador for 3 years and their dish called Moro is primarily rice and small red beans. Perhaps these are the very ones. We loved it.

    I enjoy your blog. Thanks for sharing.

  208. mary blase says

    I’m Team Lobster!! Been reading you’re blog for years and feel like I’ve lived all the places you have (while never leaving St. Louis LOL)! THANKS!!

  209. Dee Peterson says

    I love both sets of towels – but if I have to choose, I’ll pick the lobsters. My dad always made bean soups in the crockpot – would love to try new varieties!

  215. Laura Z says

    The chicken towels are so sweet, so I would choose those, but the beans look AMAZING! Thanks so much for another generous giveaway, Mavis!

  218. HollyG says

    I love both patterns, but the chickens remind me of one of our hens – so the hens would be my preference. This is fun, thanks!

  219. Julie UK says

    Long time reader of your inspirational blog – first time commenter

    – Love the chicken towels and the beans we don’t have in the UK look very interesting

  223. Debbie Webb says

    I absolutely LOVE the lobster dish towels! And, my dream is to get to Maine. Thanks for the blog that I have been following for years, but have never commented. I look forward to reading it every day!

  224. Lindsey says

    I love all things chicken, so the chicken towels would be my choice. Thanks for the chance to win.

  225. Susan H. says

    Aww! I’d love to give the chicken towels to my mom! (Might keep the beans for myself though…)

  226. Laura S. says

    Lobsters purty please. I think they’re the funniest looking things every and taste very yummy!

  228. MEM says

    I would love the chicken tea towels. My daughter collects chicken and rooster themed things and she would appreciate these towels. Thank you!

  229. Jeanine says

    Lobster Dish Towels would be fun….I can hang them on my Lobster hook in my kitchen. Love your blog and read it every day! I have used so many of your recipes!

  232. Jennifer Black says

    Lobsters! But I think it’s the beans that really appeal to me. Would love to try them!

  233. Jessi says

    I eat beans/lentils multiple times per week, but have never ventured from the typical grocery store varieties. Would love to try new varieties! The chicken towels are adorable!

  237. Stephanie says

    Super cute! I love the lobster towels. I don’t eat lobster, but they remind me of when I lived on the Connecticut shoreline. Tons of lobstering towns nearby! 🙂

  238. Hera says

    I have been showing up to your blog daily since your Washington days and now from your “Musings from Maine” daily as well! Love your blog. Chicken towels would be delightful. Thanks!

  239. Jeni says

    Your blog is the only one I read daily. Love the lobster towels, which I’d give to my sister in Florida 🙂 I’ll keep the beans!! Happy Thanksgiving

  240. Claudia says

    Chicken Towels! Every home should have some chickens at some time! and I love beans and rice, rice and beans

  241. Linda says

    I haven’t ordered from Rancho Gordo in years. Love their beans. The Christmas Limas are the absolute best bean. Believe I need to place an order asap! Love both the lobster and the chicken – surprise me! Thanks for doing the give away!

  244. Brianna says

    That would make a lot of fun bean dishes! I love the lobster, it reminds me of the crayfish I had to draw in high school, but with color!

  249. Holley says

    I’m originally from New Orleans, so I would LOVE the crawfish (little lobsters) dish towels!!! LOL

  251. Michelle of Ephrata says

    Chicken Towels please. Love your blog. My kids call you my “imaginary friend, Mavis”. Hubby also has learned that if Mavis is doing it, then we will surely be doing it too at some point. Hah!

  253. Janice says

    Thank you for giving us something positive, entertaining and/or educational to look forward to each day – some days it’s all three! I love the lobster towel.

  254. Kay Bowles says

    Chickens on the towels! In honor of a co-worker who brings me fresh eggs on a regular basis! Thank you Mavis!

  259. Kathy Brown says

    Hi Mavis! I’d love to win the lobster towels. They look like our crawfish here in Louisiana, so they’d fit right into my kitchen!

  261. Joyce says

    Oh the chickens, lobsters. How can you expect a girl to chose. I pick the chickens!
    Thanks for doing this

  263. Dawn Kahoun says

    Chickens for sure. Just recently gave our beloved chickens away since we will be moving half way across the country to be close to the grands. Thanks

  265. Sandy says

    I am a huge Rancho Gordo bean fan! Eat them all the time. This is a give away that would be much appreciated!

  274. Julie says

    Loved making so many of your recipes this year! Our family could live with you!

    For the love of chickens! Those towels are adorable!

  278. Margaret says

    Lobsters please — red is my kitchen accent color! Someday I hope to win one of these –thanks for doing this!

  279. Anne Radesi says

    Either towel is ok but I am partial to chickens. I have enjoyed hearing about your travels. Husband and I did the same thing for ten years and then settled in Western New York.

  281. Cheryl Baunoch says

    Love those chicken towels! and would love to try all those beans. Thank you for doing all the give aways.

  284. Amanda K says

    Chickens of course 😉
    Thank you Mavis for introducing me to Botanical Interests and Rancho Gordo. I can now pass the time eating killer Lima beans and ham soup while admiring my beautiful garden. Keep up the amazing blog and beautiful pictures.

  285. Pat says

    Lobster! My son and I have a “rock lobster” joke that always has us saying “claw clasp” to each other!

  287. Linda says

    Chicken dish towels…so cute! But those beans are what I’m really excited about!
    I’ve been “stalking” you as my daughter once said since your coupon days! Love how this blog has evolved. Love the gardening & recipes the best. Thanks for sharing & the good read!

  289. Stacey says

    Definitely the chicken towels because they would remind me of the way you always talked about your chickens. Fondly, of course. I eat a plant-based diet, and beans are my main protein!

  290. Kathy says

    Since I can’t eat ’em because of allergies, the lobster towels would be great.
    Thanks, Mavis.

  291. Carolin says

    Such a great idea, I love the lobster towels and beans are always handy to have 🙂
    I’m a fairly new, currently garden-deprived reader from Switzerland, but have already spent way too much time digging through the archives and enjoying your great stories and recipes – thanks a lot!
    By now, we are even on our way to building up a stockpile with lots of your frozen meals 😉

  293. Gayle Taylor says

    Greetings from Whidbey Island! The chicken dish towels, please. My chickens, Annabelle, Charlotte and Beatrice would be thrilled!

  294. Darlene Owen says

    I love the chicken dishtowels. My granddaughter has alot of chickens and she loves them like they are dogs, She walks them on a leash, gives them baths, etc.

  297. LindaT says

    After scrolling down, I figure I have a better chance at the lottery, but I’m a lobster kinda gal.
    I’m also curious about those bean varieties. Thanks for doing this, Mavis

  299. JENNIFER ROSS says

    The Chicken Towels would be great! My husband is the Chicken Guy, he got 20 new chicks this year, a lovely rainbow of colors. I love the gray ones. 🙂 I always enjoy your post’s and have been following you for many years. Some new beans to try this winter would be wonderful!

  302. Tracey says

    Chicken please.
    I have tried the black caviar lentils and they are delicious
    Thank you ❤️

  303. Sandi says

    Love your daily blog. Look forward to it every day! Chickens for me and would love to try the beans!

  309. Mary Bandstra says

    I seriously can’t decide. If I have to choose one… chickens? But I have little red accents in my kitchen and the lobsters are so fun.

  311. Tina says

    Hi! Would love lobsters! By the way, I’m really enjoying your no grocery store journey. Can’t wait to see your creativity when the fridge gets a little bare.

  312. Sue says

    I love the lobster and I have to say I don’t get your post for the day until late afternoon. Every single day I learn something, today it’s the beans. Will research and get a few bags. Have you ever tried growing and drying beans?

  314. Diane says

    I’d like the chicken towels – I really love the black and white (or cream) design of the hen’s feathers. Besides, the chicken looks just a little like Grumpy Cat, which is how I feel today. Maybe we’re sisters from another mother!

  315. Heather says

    Thanks for doing the giveaway. I need to look into those beans. I would love the chicken towels.

  321. Mary Kerns says

    Def the chickens. I have twelve laying hens and two Roos. And I love beans. I eat them several times a week. Thank you!

  325. Dorothy Lafferty says

    For me, it’s a toss-up. My hubby loves lobsters and really misses his childhood on the Atlantic coast, but our next door neighbor (right in the heart of the city) has an illegal (and very annoying) flock of chickens (and a pesky rooster) who have all decided that he is their best friend. So either way, we’d be happy.

  326. Cathy says

    I love, love your blog. I also love, love your recipes! The lobsters are definitely my choice!

  329. Robin says

    Thank you for having a giveaway that’s not just for folks who live in the USA!

    I like the Chicken Tea Towels!

  332. Amber Mae says

    Chicken towels, cause the print looks like the sassiest of my girls. Hopefully some birthday luck will rub off on this post!

  334. Lisa says

    Great giveaway! I have been wanting to try Rancho Gordo beans for a while after watch a spot on them on some food show!!
    And I love those chicken’s!! I ordered several dish towels from Hearth & Harrow after seeing them on your blog and I love them!!! I am always looking for organic, made in USA items.
    Thanks for sharing these great products!

  338. Mary Van Keuren says

    Really, you can’t go wrong with chicken towels. But I think the beans are the best part of this giveaway. Thanks, Mavis!

  342. Mimi says

    Chickens! I’d love to pass them along to my daughter-in-law. I’m sewing canvas shopping bags as Christmas gifts and filling them with useful items.
    And with the price of groceries escalating we are embracing beans more than ever – great give-away!

  346. GrannyB says

    I want chickens so bad, but we live in town and can’t find any place where we are looking to move where we can have them either. I would love the chicken towels so at least I can admire chickens in my kitchen.

  355. Sue Earnest says

    Those lobster towels would add a lovely pop of color (and the beans lots of protein).
    Thanks for the giveaway!

  359. Lori says

    I would love, love, love the chicken towels!! Not only do I have chickens, my whole kitchen is chicken themed. Sadly enough I don’t have chicken towels.

  363. Charlotte says

    I would love the chickens! And I have ordered the Rancho Gordo beans. They are the best!!! My favorite are the Christmas. Many years ago my husband raised them and we called them calico beans. Thank you for your blog and your giveaways!

  364. Diane says

    What a great giveaway! I don’t which I’m more excited about – all those yummy looking beans, or those great CHICKEN TOWELS!!! 🙂

  367. Katie Schneider says

    I REALLY WANT THE CHICKENS!!!! We had to move and I had to give my beautiful Coop and chickens away. 🙁

  368. Katy K says

    The lobster towels!

    I grew up new Napa, CA and I have never heard of Rancho Gordo until recently. Would love to try them. Thank you!

  372. April says

    Rancho Gordo Beans come from where I do and we do love the legumes. So exciting! I prefer the chickens because lobsters are cooked live…

  376. Sarah Severns says

    Hi,

    Wow, I could go either way on the towels, Lobster- Yum, and good memories of Maine, whereas Chickens.. Who doesn’t like chickens! My Instapot would love playing with the beans!

  377. Vicki Fetui says

    If I were to win this great giveaway, I would choose the Harth and Harrow chicken dish towels!
    Thanks for the opportunity!

  378. Tara Rushton says

    Chickens… we love eggs! And I’m excited to try out some of those bean varieties that I haven’t had before.
    Thanks!

  382. Perrie Forehand says

    Chickens for me!
    Been reading your blog off and on for something like 7 or 8 years. Have really enjoyed it!

  383. Sandra Hendry says

    I have been reading your column for years, always a joy. If I win I choose the Chicken towels and of course, the Beans!

  385. Sandra says

    Love this giveaway! Hard to choose, but I think I would pick the lobster towels because they are just so cute!

  390. MaryAnn Smith says

    I like the chicken towels the best. Thank you for a great blog! I look forward to reading it each day.

  391. Cathy says

    First of all, thanks for being a happy, positive light out there – I look forward to your post each day! I love the chicken towels and those beans look like the bomb!

  393. Teri says

    I’m becoming a crazy chicken lady so would love the chicken towels. Thanks for the chance to win.

  397. Cyndi Parido says

    I love the lobster towels. They will look great in the little kitchen in the studio apartment we are staying in above a garage while our house is being repaired after a house fire three weeks ago. Thanks for sharing so much in your blog it’s good getting to know you and HH.

  400. Kym says

    Ohhhh the chicken towels are adorable! But what I’m interested in are those beans…yum!!! Thanks so much for your wonderful blog!

  403. Tia in Boise says

    Now I’m hungry for bean soup….I’d love the chicken towels. Thanks for doing a giveaway!

  404. Oksana says

    The Lobster Towels are unique and not something I can find around anywhere near me. I live in the most landlocked State in the United States.

  405. Angela W. says

    Hi Mavis,

    Thanks for this offer to win — “I was driving through Portland, Augusta, and Bangor and was disappointed that I couldn’t find any lobster.” I thought that was their Maine attraction!
    Bah-dah BING, Bah-dah Boom!!! Lobstah towels please! lol I crack myself up.

  408. Mary Lynne says

    Wow! I love beans and haven’t ever tried any of these. What a treat this would be. I like the chickens towels the best. It was a hard choice.

  417. Laura L. says

    I love the chickens and I do need to eat healthier so the beans would be one step in the right direction. Thanks for this great blog and all the wonderful recipes you so generously share with us.

  419. Gail says

    Not being a coastal girl, I’d prefer the chicken towels (although I do love eating seafood). And I would LOVE to try the varieties of beans.

  420. Melanie Shores says

    How Fun! This is cheering me up at the end of a not-so-fun day. And I think the Chickens are fabulous!

  422. Terri Shortell says

    Love this giveaway!! Although I think both sets of towels are adorable, my kitchen is decorated in a farm motif, so I’ll pick the chickens. Lol

    Hi Mavis! Your generous gift offers are great, and as a PNW resident of Little Norway (Poulsbo) on Liberty Bay in Washington, I love anything related to the water/beach, so the Lobster towels would be great. But mostly, I want to take the time to tell you how much I look forward to your posts and how in awe I am of your ambition, your energy, and all your creative ideas. I can’t wrap my mind around how much you and HH get done each day. Also, much as I love it here, your pictures of your property and all the places you visit there in Maine are making me want to consider relocating!

  425. Ramona says

    Chicken towels. I pop over every day to read your blog. Have been doing it for years. Found out about it because I had a question about chickens and your blog came up because of your posts on chickens.

  430. Jess says

    I follow the Rancho Gordo IG account and would like to try their beans. The chicken towels are very cute.

  435. Holly V says

    How can a person decide between lobsters or chickens?? I guess lobsters would win out since it’s from Maine.

  438. Sadye says

    Such a difficult choice – the chickens remind me of home, but the lobsters remind me of vacation. I guess I’d have to choose the chickens!

  444. Laura LSMcK says

    If I were to be chosen, I’d like the chicken towels, please. This brand of beans comes to me with produce orders from our local farmers’ market. I especially like to use garbanzos for hummus.

  450. Kim W. says

    I love your blog, Mavis! I’ve learned so much from you over the years!
    I’d be perfectly happy with either set of towels, but my first choice would probably be the chickens. And the beans look very interesting!

  454. Sandie says

    Hi Mavis! I would be pleased with either the chicken or lobster set of towels. I really enjoy reading your blog, you make Maine look very enticing 🙂

  456. Ann Kurt says

    Love your blog & look forward to it everyday. I need to get more beans into my diet & will enjoy trying the different types. Lobster towels please. Thx for a great giveaway ! ❤

  457. Vivian says

    I was in Mid Coast Maine a few weeks ago and had lobster every chance I got except for the hot dog at Wassas in Rockland per your recommendation! I wanted to try the bakeries but it was too late in the year, darn it! I would LOVE the lobster towels and the beans. I got a recipe for New England Baked Beans from a friend and they called for yellow eye beans, but they don’t have those here in the Northwest, so I would love to get those. THANKS for the opportunity!

  463. Kimberly S. says

    Love the Lobster towels! I’m a long time reader who has truly enjoyed watching you and your families lives evolve over the years!

  465. Barbara Howe says

    Hmmm. Chicken or lobster ? Kind of like a wedding. Lobster please. For the hubby too. I’ll cook the beans.

  468. Rosaleen says

    Wow, tough choice, but I think the chickens win out. Thanks for introducing us to so many varieties of beans, tomatoes, and other vegetables!

  492. Teresa Perry says

    Omg Everybody Loves Chickens!
    I have a private joke with my (adult) daughter about “everybody loves chickens”. It’s not even funny to anybody but us. Shrug. It’s still chickens all the way.

  494. Mary Neathway says

    Lobster! I”m an east coast New Brunswicker, transplanted to the interior of BC where good lobsters are never found!

  496. Jenna says

    Beans and tea towels Had no idea those would also be someone else’s favorites! Love your blog and the frequency that you post. If I had to choose one, chickens it would be. Both are precious though.

  510. Kimberly O'Donoghue says

    Such a tough choice but I love the chickens! Matter of fact I may just buy some of those towels for Christmas. I was just in Napa and want to say I saw those beans some where why didn’t I buy them???!! Thanks for a dose of happiness and goodness in every email

  520. Deltha says

    I would Love the chicken towels! My grandmother always had chicken towels and these are so cute!!!

  522. Naomi says

    I like the lobster towels! However, I have never eaten a lot of beans as I didn’t like them when I was young. Now I am starting to put beans into soups and am enjoying them. The addition of beans to the towels would be a good way for me to try out new types of beans!

  530. Christie says

    You’re the BEST! Chickens would go best in our home but the Lobsters would work in the RV. So either! 🙂

  532. KCmama says

    Definitely the chicken towels! I am very excited though about trying the beans. We eat a good amount of beans here in winter so I would love to try some new (to us) varieties. Thank you for the chance!

  534. Deanna says

    Love your blog especially the recipes and photos good luck to everyone! My towel choice is the chickens

  539. Becca Gordon says

    Both sets of towels are super cute, but as we live out in farm country, I would have to go with the chicken towels.

  542. Ciarra.F says

    The chicken towels are so cute! And I’ve almost ordered beans from Rancho Gordo 5 different times. I really want to try them.

  544. Cindy Williamson says

    Chickens towels. When I was way younger I asked for chickens for my birthday and grandma gave me 25 little adorable chicks.

  546. Heidi Ho says

    Hi Mavis! The cute little chickens would be my pick for towels, and the lobster in my tummy!! Have a great day

  548. Kathy Fields says

    I would choose the chickens because they look like my daughter’s chickens and I would pass your gift on to her. She’s newly married this year and setting up her home. But we do all love lobster too! Thank you for all your inspiration!

  559. Susan Rose says

    Definitely the lobster towels! It would be fun to incorporate the beans into holiday cooking!

  562. Carol says

    What a nice idea! I would love the chicken towels and the beans, too. We’re trying to eat more plant based meals, so the beans would fit right into the plan.

    Super cute, let’s go with chickens. I have wanted to try those beans, such a fantastic giveaway.

  581. Tracy says

    Beans are the best. And the instant pot is great for them!
    I love the different colors, even if they do change when they cook.
    In the meantime, lobsters are scarce in Missouri, so chicken towels would make more sense for me.
    Thanks!

  586. Suzanne C. says

    The chickens are fun! I’m intrigued to try dried beans that are a little different from my usual purchases.

  589. Linda Gerding says

    I would love the chickens, reminds me of raising chickens when I was a kid. I love your recipes.

  592. Lynn from NC Outer Banks says

    The lobsters for me. Though we don’t have lobsters here in NC, I live on the coast and would love to have the coastal look. The beans sound unique. Thanks Mavis for your generosity!

  593. Becky S says

    Lobsters! I love the color and they would fit our home now that we are living near the coast!

  595. Phyllis Haynes says

    I love the lobster towels but I guess I would take the chicken towels, I live in the “Chicken Capitol of the World”, Gainesville, GA.

    Oh, I just adore anything chicken-related. I used to raise chickens many years ago when I lived in Maine. Thanks so much for a wonderful giveaway!! Be especially blessed!!

  642. Joanna says

    Lobsters ……as this was the first year I finally tried one and love the taste… Kinda after reading your backyard lobster dinner! Thank you Mavis!

  645. Elaine McCarty says

    Thanks, Mavis! I would love to win the chickens with my beans! I’ve been wanting to try those beans – my hubby is a big fan of beans, lol. And that chicken is cool.

  652. Pam F. says

    Oooo, chickens! I’m a Maine girl at heart, but my chickens have gotten me through this crazy pandamic so I’ve got to go with them.

  661. Martha H says

    I like the lobsters a lot, but I’d like to give them as a gift to some friends who have chickens, so chickens, please. Thank you, Mavis.

  667. Lisa Rostocki says

    Lobsters! I live right near the ocean so they would look great in my decor for my kitchen

  671. Betsy Hildebrand says

    Chickens! I love lobsters, but here in central Ohio, we are all about our cute little frizzled chickens.

  676. Jen says

    I love them both! My house in PA has a farm/chicken theme—but we own a summer home on Vinalhaven Island in Maine…which has the largest lobster fishing fleet on the east coast! I guess I would go with chickens—since I’m in pa the majority of the time!

  678. Laura says

    I LOVE Rancho Gordo beans! I many different beans plus there cookbook. The chicken towels would be an awesome addition!!!!! Love you Mavis for what you do for us!

  679. Melissa M. says

    Wahoo! I absolutely love tea towels and chicken tea towels would be a great for this chicken lady.

  682. Silkifae says

    The chickens in honor of my old hens who no longer lay eggs, but are now pets (and pest eaters). The beans are a great gift…especially with your glowing recommendation.

  686. JulieP says

    Chicken definitely. All things chicken at my house apart from the real things. We still have the coop but being away in the RV means we can’t keep chickens any more. I fill my home, and the RV with chicken stuff!

  687. Katherine says

    Hello! Thank you for the opportunity. What fun kinds of beans to try. I’d love the chicken set.

  689. Sandra says

    Oh.. The lobster ones in our new kitchen 🙂 Makes me think of our last travel in Maine !!! And the beans to make stews this winter <3
