We have been putting together our Top Veggie Varieties every year since 2007 based on our farm's production. One of the shortcomings of those lists is the wide range of weather and personnel factors that can make a "perfect storm" for a particular crop. For example, Blizzard snow peas won the 2015 list in a year where peas were just ridiculous on the farm. The weather was perfect for them. The crew bought into keeping them picked so we could set a new farm record. We got the plants in at the perfect time, weeded them at the perfect time and got them trellised right on time. But, would Blizzard make a top ten list based on the results over several seasons? Well, read on to find out!
