Sugar Snap Peas encapsulate the essence of spring with their crisp, plump pods and succulent, sweet peas nestled within. Serving as a delightful blend of green pea flavor and edible-podded snap, these vibrant green vegetables boast a crunchy texture that makes them perfect for snacking raw or tossing into stir-fries. Each pod is rounded, typically about 2 to 3 inches long, and contains full-sized peas that contribute to the snap pea's signature juicy bite. Sugar Snap Peas can enliven a salad, add crunch to wraps and sandwiches, or serve as a vibrant side dish when lightly steamed and flavored with a touch of butter and herbs. Aside from their fresh taste, they are a nutritious addition to any meal, providing vitamin C, vitamin K, and fiber.
Hickory Hill Farm is all about family. Back in 1852, this 200+ acre plot was gifted to the family as part of a land grant for a relative's service in the Revolutionary War. Now the Certified Organic farm is run by Garry and Susan Shaw along with their daughter, Jennifer Johns, and her husband Josh. Altogether, four generations of the Shaw family are currently living on or working this plot of land. Not to mention their many chickens, hogs, sheep, cattle, and horses!
