{"title":"Peas","description":"","products":[{"product_id":"oregon-sugar-pod-ii-snow-pea","title":"Oregon Sugar Pod II Snow Pea","description":"\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eOregon Sugar Pod II is a popular snap pea (snow pea type) variety that produces large, flat, crisp pods typically 4-5 inches long and ¾-1 inch wide, with smooth, bright green skin, tender texture, and stringless quality when harvested young—pods remain succulent and sweet even at larger sizes compared to many older snow peas. The flavor is fresh, sweet, and mildly nutty with no bitterness, making it one of the best-tasting snow peas for raw or cooked use—the thick, juicy pods are edible whole, including the peas inside when immature. These peas are excellent eaten raw as crunchy snacks or in salads, stir-fried quickly to retain crispness, added to Asian-inspired dishes like fried rice or vegetable medleys, steamed or blanched briefly as a side, or used in wraps and spring rolls for their satisfying snap and mild sweetness. This variety is an excellent choice for Utah because it's cold-hardy and early-maturing, allowing reliable production in our cool spring and fall seasons with direct sowing or transplants, it tolerates light frosts well (often recommended by USU Extension for northern Utah), and it performs consistently in full sun with well-drained soil despite our variable weather and shorter cool periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e12 seeds per packet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Salt City Gardens","offers":[{"title":"6-Pack","offer_id":44849123688557,"sku":"orsp-pea-06","price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Seed Packet","offer_id":44849123721325,"sku":"orsp-pea-seed","price":4.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/6774\/9997\/files\/OreganSugarPodII.jpg?v=1773703408"},{"product_id":"sugar-snap-pea","title":"Sugar Snap Pea","description":"\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eSugar Snap pea is a popular snap pea variety that produces plump, round pods typically 2-3 inches long, with thick, crisp, juicy walls and small, tender peas inside—pods are completely edible when harvested young, remaining sweet and succulent even as peas begin to fill out. The flavor is outstanding—intensely sweet, fresh, and mildly nutty with a satisfying crunch that's often described as one of the best-tasting peas available, far superior to traditional snow peas or shelling types for raw or quick-cooked eating. These peas are perfect eaten straight off the vine as a snack, added raw to salads and stir-fries, steamed or sautéed briefly as a bright green side, used in Asian-inspired dishes like fried rice or vegetable medleys, or pickled for tangy treats—their sweetness and crunch make them a favorite for fresh use. This variety is a reliable choice for Utah because it's cold-hardy and early-maturing, allowing direct sowing or transplanting in our cool spring and fall seasons with good frost tolerance, it performs consistently in full sun and well-drained soil despite variable weather, and it's frequently recommended by USU Extension as a productive snap pea suited to northern Utah home gardens for extended harvests through the shorter cool periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e12 seeds per packet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Salt City Gardens","offers":[{"title":"6-Pack","offer_id":44849124933741,"sku":"suga-pea-06","price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Seed Packet","offer_id":44849124966509,"sku":"suga-pea-seed","price":4.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/6774\/9997\/files\/SugarSnap.jpg?v=1773703527"},{"product_id":"early-frosty-pea","title":"Early Frosty Pea","description":"\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eEarly Frosty is an early-maturing snow pea variety that produces long, flat, crisp pods typically 3–4 inches long with smooth, bright green skin and tender, sweet edible pods.
