Sounds so good. Lived in Big Sandy as a child and remember all the goodies along the roadside in summer. What good eating.

Yes, love them with cornbread & onions.
They are called PURPLE HULL CROWDER PEAS.

What time is supper? Cow feed is what nonsoutherners think. I love cream peas too but haven't had any in years. They don't know what they are missing & don't forget the cantalope.

I love purple hull peas. When we had a garden we would grow enough to freeze so we could have them all year long.

No comparison between Purple Hull Peas & Fava Beans.
