Peas

Peas, a naturally non-GMO crop, contribute positively to agricultural sustainability by adding nitrogen to the soil, enhancing soil health for subsequent crops. Columbia Grain offers a variety of peas including Whole Green Peas, Split Green Peas, and Polished Split Green Peas, known for their delightful flavor and tender texture, making them perfect for soups and casseroles. Additionally, Whole Yellow Peas, Split Yellow Peas, and Polished Split Yellow Peas are available, characterized by a milder, slightly sweeter taste and a soft, granular texture. Rich in vitamins A, B, C, fiber, protein, and potassium, yellow peas are ideal for soups, stews, curries, and as nutritious feed for pets and livestock. Cultivated primarily in the Northern Plains and the Palouse region of the U.S., peas have a storied history, dating back to the Neolithic era and noted in ancient texts from various civilizations.
