Well, it was harvest day for our Sugar Sprint snap peas - we ate them quickly sauteed in a little butter, salt and pepper. What a great vegetable! We use the Crockett Victory Garden method of planting - 6 inch plus wide row, about 10 feet long, thickly planted in that band - and use 3 foot tall sticks pushed in here and there for them to crawl up. The thick planting makes it very space efficient....now that we are hitting the 90s during the day I am sure that they won't last long. Still, we will enjoy each and every one! And, Sugar Sprint, while not quite as sweet as some we've tried, is a good variety.
