1 pound of Austrian winter pea seeds. These are bulk seeds and will not come with instructions, they will also come in a ziplock bag. I use Diatomaceous earth in my bins to prevent insect infestation, so their may be some in the seeds. DE is a natural product and can actually be eaten, the DE is food grade. 98% Pure Seed1% Inert Matter0.5% Max Other Crop Seed0.5% Max Weed Seed85% GerminationGrown in Idaho Sow Aug. 15-Nov. 1 as a winter cover crop in zones 6 and up. Hardy to 0°F. A great edible cover crop – snip off the tendrils and growing tips for salads! Flowers earlier (April) than hairy vetch. For maximum nitrogen fixing, wait until at least 50% of the plants have flowered before mowing crop. Sow at rate of ½ – 1 ½ lb per 500 sq. ft.Austrian winter pea greens Austrian winter pea greens taste sweet and delicious, almost identical to sugar snap peas, but with a soft, lettuce-like texture. The greens are also high in protein and micronutrients.Austrian winter pea podsYes, Austrian winter pea pods are edible and tasty too, but not as good as sweet pea varieties bred specifically for their raw pods. In our area, Austrian winter peas form pods in spring (around May).They tend to get stringy quickly so pick them young for fresh eating or let them mature until the pods begin to turn tan in color to harvest as a dry soup pea. (They make amazing split pea soup!) Field Peas Or Austrian Winter Peas?Most Americans who have heard of Austrian winter peas sometimes call them “field peas” in reference to how they’re grown on large swaths of farmland either as a soil-improving cover crop or as a tempting deer fodder for avid hunters. The pea greens are also popular with wild turkeys.If you keep backyard poultry like chickens or ducks, your birds will love these greens and subsequently lay eggs with even more nutrition for you (more on that below).The most cold-hardy pea variety?In Asian cuisines, the truly delicious leaves of Austrian winter peas have been a culinary treat for centuries. They’re quickly catching on in U.S. supermarkets and restaurants amongst foodies as well.JL Missouri Parts has been selling on Ebay for well over a decade.
