Product Description

Sugar snap peas represent the pinnacle of our vegetable cultivation expertise, grown in the optimal microclimates of Kenya's central highlands. These premium pods combine the best characteristics of garden peas and snow peas, offering plump, sweet peas within crisp, edible pods that have revolutionized the European fresh produce market. Our cultivation areas in Kiambu and Murang'a counties benefit from unique geographical advantages, including consistent temperatures, adequate rainfall, and rich volcanic soils that have been enriched over centuries. The combination of these natural factors with our advanced agricultural techniques produces sugar snap peas with exceptional sweetness and the perfect balance of texture that European consumers have come to expect. The growing process requires meticulous attention to detail, from seed selection through harvest. We use only certified, disease-resistant varieties that have been specifically bred for export markets. Our integrated farming approach includes beneficial insect programs, organic soil amendments, and precision irrigation systems that ensure optimal plant health while minimizing environmental impact. Harvesting sugar snap peas requires expert timing and technique. The pods must be picked when they're plump but still tender, with visible peas that haven't yet become starchy. This optimal harvest window lasts only 24-48 hours for each plant, requiring multiple passes through the field by skilled harvesters who can identify the perfect maturity stage.
