Peas
My 92 year old FIL harvested 6 rows of Purple Hull Peas this year. They blanch them and then put in the freezer. They eat peas Year round and it is a staple in their diet. I’m just wondering how many of you eat peas on a regular basis anymore?

Field Peas and Green Beans - - - - along with several cans of Pintos - -
I haven't had a good mess of Purple Hulls in a long time but I'd sure like some

Re: Peas
Canned/frozen or fresh? Green or other? We seem to have a couple green bean plants poking up.

Re: Peas
Fresh. I think most stores carry frozen peas, at least down here . Those are pretty good. It’s just very important to my In-laws and I think modern fits have gotten away from peas and many garden vegetables the older generation grew up with

I Love Butter Beans but my back can’t stand the picking of them anymore; too low

Re: Peas
Not as often as I’d like. The local farmers market posted this weekend they had purple hulls. Really wanted to get down there and grab a couple bags but like a lot of things lately, just not enough hours in the day

Last year we grew them at our front door. I'm not allowed to pick them.
