Origin
Navy beans, also known as haricot beans or pea beans, have their origin in the Americas. They were cultivated by Native Americans long before the arrival of Europeans. The name \"navy beans\" comes from their use as a staple food by the United States Navy in the 19th century. Navy beans are now widely grown and consumed in various parts of the world, including North and South America, Europe, and Asia.
