I was poking around my Sugar Ann sugar snap peas last night and was surprised to find pods that were over an inch long. They still need to fill out, but it won't be long. They kind of snuck up on me, because I was noticing the blossoms and thinking they still had a ways to go. The Sugar Snap peas do still have a ways to go--no blossoms yet.

The Caselode peas have small pods of them, too.

Won't be long and I can't wait.

Mine are finishing up sooner than I had expected, though we've had a cooler than usual spring. I rotated everything I grow and this year the peas are getting almost no morning sun but lots of afternoon sun and they don't like it much. I guess I'll be taking them out in about a week and putting in my snap beans and butter beans.

The Golden Sweet are delish! Can't comment on how they cook up since we are grazing and the peas never make it into the kitchen!
