Pea Sugar Snap - A Gold Medal AAS WInner

Pea Sugar Snap

1979 AAS Edible – Vegetable Winner

The mature pods of AAS Gold Medal Winner Sugar Snap snap pea are round with fleshy walls and are crisp and delicious through full maturity. Even overripe pods can be shelled and the green peas eaten alone or mixed with the pods. With Sugar Snap Peas you get to eat the entire pod with the peas nestled inside. The pods are juicy, crisp, sweet, and crunchy. Stringless, 3-inch pods keep their rich color and real crunch after cooking.
