Great British Pea Week 2019 !

Did you know that it's Great British Pea Week, it runs from the 8th to 14th July 2019, and is an annual celebration of peas!

It aims to increase awareness and understanding of the provenance and heritage of peas, giving British consumers a reason to celebrate the little green nutritional wonders during harvesting time. 

The great British Summer is upon us, and here at Yes Peas HQ our pea farmers are kicking off their harvest beginning in June and lasting six weeks of intense work! The harvest, which takes place along the East Coast of the country, will result in enough peas to feed the entire country for a whole year – that’s an un-pea-lievable amount of peas! Most of these peas go from field to frozen in just 150 minutes, locking in all those nutrients.
