For most of us who were raised in this area, growing purple hull peas is sort of second nature. We've been doing it since we were youngun's, and it's sort of like learning to spotlight deer - you never really forget. Still, some of us do it better than others. Plus, the festival is often asked for advice on growing peas. So we decided to gather a little pea-growing information and pass it along. If you're looking for seed, go to the purple hull pea seed page. While we have our own opinions, we recognize that it's hard to beat the experts. The University of Arkansas Cooperative Extension Service has some excellent publications about growing peas that you can download for free. But you must have Acrobat Reader, a free program you can download by going to the Adobe Web site. Here they are:
