You can probably grow those. I grow beans I get from the grocery store all the time. I know that doesn’t tell you the variety, but it does let you acquire seeds.

If you are wanting the same thing, just get a bag and plant them if you can. Sometimes the ingredient list will tell you what type they are though.

Crowder peas, zipper cream peas, purple hull peas, and black eyed peas are all considered field peas. I would say they are crowder or zipper cream best I can tell from pkg.

According to the Camellia brand website:
Popular in Southern and soul food cuisine, field peas are actually beans, not peas. Along with crowder peas, cream peas, and blackeye peas, field peas are also called “cowpeas” or “Southern peas.”

You can find these at grocery stores or online. You can probably plant these for more.

Thanks everyone! Everytime I searched by the name I know them as it came up as a cover crop. I know they aren’t crowder because I finally found those. I’ll investigate all your suggestions.

I had a package of dried black beans, but all the seeds I found looked different. I just soaked the ones I had overnight, planted them with innoculent, and grew them. They were delicious and looked like what I planted. I’ve grown them ever since.

Field peas are the same thing as black-eyed peas but there are several varieties. Few tend to be called field peas anymore.

Hey,
Since we’re talking about seeds, has anyone used the business, Seeds ‘N Such, to purchase seeds? They have some interesting ones and the price doesn’t seem to be too bad either. Here’s the link to their website:
Here’s some of the squash seeds I’m interested in with the link to the page they are on. Anybody think they would produce well in this area?

There are no less than 22 known varieties and many are delicious . In hues of purple, pink, red, brown, and yes, black-and-white, field peas grow in long pods. They vary in size, texture, and flavor, from meaty and nutty to tender and herbaceous. You may find them called cowpeas or Southern peas, and varieties have colorful (memorable!) names like Rattlesnake, Zipper, Stick Up, Shanty, Turkey Craw, Queen Anne, Polecat, Hercules, Colossus, Iron Clay, Washday, Crowder, Pinkeye Purple Hull, Mississippi Silver, and Big Red Ripper.

All field peas were originally used as a cover crop for livestock.
