May Harvest of the Month will be sugar snap peas from Fog Dog Farm. Did you know the French word for snap peas, "mangetout" means "eat all" because both the peas and the  pod are edible.  Snap peas are a vining vegetable so they like to grow up a trellis or other anything they can climb.  Snap peas are a great source of vitamins A, C, and K, as well as potassium and dietary fiber.  As a member of the legume family, snap peas are a cousins of beans, chickpeas, lentils, pod peas, and peanuts.
