Use to use 0-20-20 fertilizer on beans in the garden and can't find anymore. Use to see some with N in single digits, but don't see that any more. Any ideas?

I’m ignorant to the use in gardening but it is a early fall application on grasses for root health and soil amendment. All I got...
Forgot to add that it will probably show up on shelf’s at summers end.

Where do you usually buy 0-20-20 - farm supply stores? How much do you usually in your garden?

You could make your own blend if you using reasonably small quantities by mixing Hi-Yield Superphosphate 0-18-0 with Hi-Yield Muriate of Potash 0-60-0. Those are sold at most hardware stores and retail plant nurseries. For every 1 pound of 0-20-20 you are using in the garden you would blend 1.1 pound of 0-18-0 + 0.33 pound of 0-0-60 and apply that to give you the equivalent of 1 pound of 0-20-20. The difference in weight is just filler, usually finely ground ag limestone.

You can make your own with rock phosphate and potash. Any garden center beyond the big box stores will have it, and fertilizer with a low N number.
