Black-eyed Peas also known as Cowpeas are very easy to grow, colorful and tasty. They are very popular in the Southern U.S., Africa and Asia. They are great picked young for use as green snap peas, and stir-fried or boiled but in The South they are normally shelled and cooked with some hog fat and onions. They have long been a favorite crop of ours as they are for most of Southern folks. They also make a great cover crop, to choke weeds and put nitrogen in the soil. We suggest that when you rotate your crops and that you plant tomatoes and other crops where you grew your peas the year before.
