For years, I blanched my home grown green beans before freezing them--and was always disappointed by their flavor and texture. (Blanching is when you plunge them into boiling water and then into ice water to stop cooking.)
Then I discovered that frozen green beans look and taste better if you don't blanch them first. And through my blog I've heard from dozens and dozens of skeptics who've been won over by actually trying this method for themselves:

In this video I show you my super-easy method for getting them ready for the freezer. You just cut up your green beans, put them in a ziplock freezer bag, and extract the air with a straw. It works for either garden beans or ones you've bought at the store.
I show you my method for my own organically grown beans. And then the method to use if you need to wash your beans.
