I didn’t know any strawberries but grow throughout the summer. Even here in East Tennessee?
Sadly, I am pitiful at making jam. It either comes out thick and chunky or like syrup.
You can your peas or freeze them? I only had a dozen plants last year and got very few pieces. Seems it would take a lot of plants to get several pounds of peas. And shelling them is a lot of work. I’m considering just eating the pods this year while they are young and tender.
Always freeze peas
To plant peas.
Make a shallow trench. About 6”- 6’ row
Spread peas Seeds evenly on top of soil (or even on top of snow ) no rows
cover with a layer or composted dirt or high power potting soil about a1/2 or 3/4 inch thick
Plant where they get lots of sunlight and have a climbing structure. I keep several sections of pig fence cut into 8’ segment to use in garden. Usually the farm supply stores are willing to cut larger segment in half
Yes. Strawberry have June bearer or ever bearer on label.

There are special variety of peas to eat just pods.
Sometimes they are referred to as snow peas
Again look on package They are well marked.
Great childhood memory, sitting on my great-aunt’s porch shelling peas with my older sister, eating as many, if not more than we gave to auntie.
Fun and yummy!!
