Well-drained soil and mulch to assist in cooler roots and weed control. Important tip: When planting your peas avoid planting near garlic or onions as it will inhibit the growth of vining legumes. Peas appreciate being planted with or near carrots, beets, turnips, radish, cucumber, corn and all herbs.
Peas are also a popular source of nutrients, like niacin, iron, vitamins A and C, and several B vitamins.
