California Blackeye Peas, a beloved heirloom variety, are known for their creamy texture and earthy flavor. These versatile legumes are a staple in many cuisines, adding substance and nutrition to soups, stews, salads, and rice dishes. They're also a great source of protein and fiber, making them a healthy and delicious addition to your diet.

GROWING INSTRUCTIONS: 
Direct sow seeds outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed up. Plant seeds 1-2 inches deep and 2-4 inches apart in rows spaced about 2-3 feet apart. Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during germination and pod development. Blackeye peas are relatively drought-tolerant once established. They will typically be ready for harvest in about 60-90 days, depending on the variety and growing conditions.
