Now THIS Is How You SHELL Peas!! (Antique Pea Sheller) - The Farm Life

[@rawhide851]

What a blast from the past! I was my uncle's house near lake okeechobee shelling black eyed peas. I went inside only to find out my cousins were taking me to Lion Country Safari. Well, I was so excited I bolted out the door, couldn't stop and got my finger caught in the large pulley. 100 stitches to save my finger tip. This was back in 1966!

[@johnellebaker3725]

My Granny had us kids to shell peas and shuck corn. We sat on her big porch with newspapers in our laps to put the shells and bowls for peas. She taught us so many things while working. Good memories

[@lisawalters5482]

Oh my! I gotta have one of those. Amazing. Our generation don’t hold a candle to our grands generation

[@johnhill7498]

Love purple hull peas also like the antique pea sheller. Have a good day guys...........Sharon

[@CogHillFarm]

Thanks!! 😊

[@fallingleaves6951]

Pea shellers are awesome, but the memories of sitting on the porch shelling peas and snapping beans with a passel of aunts, grandmother and cousins sure creates good memories. Black eyed peas have to be at the top of my fav veggies list (but really, how do you pick a favorite out of all the summer time delicious freshness? Vine ripened tomatoes, sweet yellow squash, green onions,okra, fresh pesto made with homegrown basil and garlic served over spaghetti squash...) Anyway, my son was about 3 years old and sitting on a kitchen counter helping me make dinner. He did something that made me stop and hug him and tell him he was my absolute favorite blue eyed boy. He replied that I was his favorite black eyed peas eyed mom. So yeah, we ate them a lot. LOL! Thanks for bringing those wonderful memories up.

[@CogHillFarm]

Yes!!!!

[@midsouthhomestead9180]

The best of memories!

[@kflan3342]

I SO want one of those pea shellers! Such a gem! And, yes, purple peas are my favorite! Yum!

[@CogHillFarm]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@turkeycreekhomestead]

That finger blade thing is an awesome idea!

[@Christodophilus]

Be proud of those weeds! They're protecting the ground from drying out, and looking after your peas. I know people are proud of their weedless gardens, but they always look so naked to me. I was really chuffed to see weeds in your video. And what a harvest of peas! Such an amazing antique, that still works wonders, shelling them too.

[@sandragillingham6255]

[@yassinouchnan9838]

You are really an incredible nice person and nice family. I would enjoy once to meet your grandpa and parents to see where this personality come from. I guess your wife is a very nice person to make this could be. I hope my english is understandable. I really enjoy to pass these few minutes with you guys. Take care.

[@bsofar1675]

That was cool. Thanks.

[@CogHillFarm]

Thanks! -Jason

[@50shadesofgreen]

fantastic harvest of peas guys !!and a fabulous bit of antique machinery

[@CogHillFarm]

It’s so awesome

[@emeraldwaterlifehomestead2180]

Love the pea Sheller. So awesome that it was your family's. Super crop. My first year doing cow peas and love it.

[@CogHillFarm]

Thanks Lisa!!!

[@lilbitatatime3763]

What a great pea huller. Saves lots of time. 👍

[@CogHillFarm]

😊 thank you!!!-Jason

[@kirstenwhitworth8079]

How cool is THAT‽ It really made shelling those peas easier - or at least it looked like it did. Yay, Granddad!

[@CogHillFarm]

:)))))

[@samtyson8108]

Too Cool - Thanks for showing that awesome machine. Take'em Easy!

[@CogHillFarm]

Thanks Sam!

[@larrysowada9905]

That pea hauler makes easy work but my suggestion is for the pea shells is to have a wide mouth bucket or a box under where they come out to catch them so your lovely wife doesn't have to clean up after you haha. Larry

[@CogHillFarm]

😊 Lol, what happened was we started shelling before we put a box down there to catch them. Thanks Larry!!-Jason

[@Citystead]

Man that sheller is awesome!

[@cjfishtales2238]

That machine is so cool. Simple, effective and made to Last

[@MrRain-hk4zi]

Jason, that thing is great!

[@CogHillFarm]

Thanks buddy!!!

[@midsouthhomestead9180]

I AM AN ANTIQUE PEA SHELLER! LOL! I loved this video.

[@CogHillFarm]

😂😂😂😂

[@thiscottagetable3021]

That is an awesome contraption! The Hoss Harvesting bucket is very good but, the finger knives were better! LOL Thanks for sharing!

[@CogHillFarm]

You're welcome :)

[@JohnMartinez-sm1sk]

Cool machine, wish they still made these.👍👍

[@CogHillFarm]

Ain’t that the truth! Thx John

[@simpletruth9977]

Purple hulls are going crazy in my garden. I've got to get that hoss bucket. My grandfather gave me his peasheller before he past away. Someone stole it and my chainsaw out of my shed. Oh, Jason move those clodhoppers!!😂😂

[@CogHillFarm]

Oh noooooo, I am so sorry about your sheller!!!!! Thanks guys!!

[@NicoleCChoque]

That's a nifty gaget! The double rollers remind me of those old school wash wringers. 😃👍 Really nice harvest of that crop!

[@CogHillFarm]

Thanks Nicole!

[@jessieramos1676]

Your antique huller reminds me if my mom's washing machine wringer in the early sixties. It looked like a hybrid of the Featherman and your huller.

[@CogHillFarm]

And I’m thinking that is what those rollers are from. This sheller is def homemade & I bet back then, they used whatever they could get their hands on. Thanks Jessie

[@DaybirdAviaries]

Jessie Ramos my Granny Day used a wringer like that to shell peas. She would wash collards in the washer.

[@ahandmadehomestead]

😮 that thing is amazing! I need one! I don’t grow many peas because it takes foreeeeevaaa to get the peas out of the shell.

[@CogHillFarm]

😊

[@aliverseidge]

That was a great harvest. Thank you for sharing. I enjoy your style.

[@CogHillFarm]

Thanks!!!

That old technology is cool. It's amazing to me that it doesn't just squish them. Who needs electronics anyway! hahaha

[@CogHillFarm]

Exactly!

[@michaelkee6602]

That’s cool. What would be better is a quart bag of them pink eyes in my crockpot along with some cornbread in the oven. 🤔😉

[@CogHillFarm]

Shut yo mouff!!!! Lawd yes, & that is what we've eaten all week!!

[@CogHillFarm]

BOOOOM!!!!! I am supposed to start running lines to the butcher shop this weekend too! Thanks & def keep me updated-Jason

[@M6T7Y]

My Grandad converted a ringer washing machine to pea sheller. I am sure it is stuck in one of the old barns. I really like that one you got though.

[@CogHillFarm]

Omg that would be awesome if you found it! Thanks guys!

[@midsouthhomestead9180]

That is so neat.

[@GardinersPlot]

awesome bit of equipment!

[@CogHillFarm]

[@gabemarchal4754]

You the best and 1st

[@CogHillFarm]

:))))

[@Jbeez1947]

okay that was so cool!!!!!!!!!!!! I want one of those antique pea shellers!!!!!!! well first I need to plant peas! but still...

[@CogHillFarm]

😊❤️

[@lindasegraves6207]

Have you tried cooking whole okra while cooking your purple hull peas? Even if you don't eat or like okra your peas will have a great richness. Okra is also good cooked on crowder peas or dark butter beans. Thanks for your videos.

[@CogHillFarm]

Oh yeah! We sure do 😉

[@jerrybeaver9212]

I saw in another video that you have a creek on your property,do you use or ( have you thought about) using a ram pump to bring water from the creek to a 275 gal. tote to water your garden and animals? It could save you money and time .Enjoy your vlog-Jerry

[@CogHillFarm]

We have...and I actually recently acquired a pump, & hopefully when we start working the bank of the creek, I can install it as well. Thanks!!!-Jason

[@DaybirdAviaries]

#awesomeness I want a creek with a ram pump.

[@dianamallory8535]

You should have left those on the ground , Peaches would have cleaned them up! lol Loved the vintage pea shucker! Thanks for sharing.

[@CogHillFarm]

Funny you say that, bc I actually fed them to the guinea hogs :) -Jason

[@farm_in_themiddleofthewood3339]

That is sooooo awesome!!! .... we want one!! :) Now, how are you going to use those peas....?!?!?!? Thanks for sharing!

[@littlewhitedory1]

Cool beans!

[@CogHillFarm]

Thanks!

[@terraranch1459]

Are these black eyed peas? Love them. Hugs to the family❤️

[@CogHillFarm]

They are...thanks :)

[@kimberlyhughes5475]

Danny from Deep South found parts of something similar in his old barn. I shared this video on his site, but can you send him so.e photos of your pea shelter? He wants to rebuild it! I just love your videos!❤

[@diaryofafarmgirl5189]

be a zinnia..LOVE it

[@CogHillFarm]

Yes 🌸 :)

[@Beecozz7]

Are those called black-eyed peas to us west coasters? Really cool! Love y'all! Your daughter is so cute!

[@CogHillFarm]

Pretty much :) thanks buddy!!!

[@fallingleaves6951]

Beecozz7 that is what we called them in Texas as well. Not sure how the name changed between Alabama and Texas.

[@kimadkins4558]

Beecozz7 They are actually two difference things. Purple Hull peas aren't as well know as the black eyed peas but are a close cousins to them. A lot of people think the purple hull peas have a much better taste. My family loves them.

[@Beecozz7]

Not a buddy, I'm a buddette ;-)

[@teresahix5658]

I heard Brooke,,,, there’s our sassy girl ❤

[@loriehabel1552]

Nice👍

[@CogHillFarm]

👍👍

[@kathymorrison5293]

Love me some peas! Will you can or freeze them? I think I'll can mine this year.

[@CogHillFarm]

Thx Kathy! We typically freeze ours, & mainly bc it is just easier & more convenient for us-Thanks, Jason :)

[@stevestaggs2747]

Nice vids bud!

[@CogHillFarm]

Thanks Steve!!!-Jason

[@truejoy3779]

Be a zinnia! I think that's awesome advice. I'm sure the store bought canned purple hull peas that I've had are nothing compared to the cog hill homegrown version! When's dinner lol? Love and God bless :o)

[@CogHillFarm]

😊❤️ thanks True Joy!!

[@patience1226]

Great video! ......I wonder if you could use the wringer part on an old wringer washing machine ......??.... it's a thought........

[@CogHillFarm]

That maybe what that is...sure what it looks like & this thing is homemade

[@greengirlatgafarms6899]

Such a priceless feeling, using something that has been in your family family so long. Glad y'all were able to find and use it. Don't see them decently priced nowadays so my fingers are the only sheller my peas see lol. Do you have to adjust for different sides peas?

[@CogHillFarm]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@cbr600rrturbo]

Wow you got a bunch of them,we'll done playboy

[@CogHillFarm]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@djspeer9756]

Question, did you find that the bucket part of the Hoss collector got in your way as you picked? Did the finger cutters really work? I have never had those peas but they look good. Love the sheller. How awesome.

[@CogHillFarm]

The Hoss bucket has been great & no issues. I just used it to pick figs and it a life saver & the finger cutters really did work. :)

[@smilealong1]

Reminds me of an old wringer washing machine...

[@CogHillFarm]

:)

[@troys8366]

Your slacking on the dancing! Farmer part ,wow them there Are alot of peas.👍

[@CogHillFarm]

Def slacking!!

[@sandragillingham6255]

Be A Zinnia! 😄 🤣

[@peggylindenthaler6503]

Do you and Mrs Cog Hill Farm have a nice pantry? Do you can much of what you grow?

[@jackywaldon359]

That makes me hungry for peas. 75 years old and still working isn't it getting the job done.

[@CogHillFarm]

❤️❤️❤️

[@pamt8430]

That is AMAZING!! what are you doing with the harvest? Never heard of this veg but now I want to try it...would this be a good cover crop?

[@CogHillFarm]

I do not see why it would not work as a cover crop-Thanks Pam

[@johnellebaker3725]

Where did you get the bottle trees? I would like to get a couple.

[@MrSanteeclaus]

What do you do with the hulls? I understand they are good pig feed but not good compost.

[@CogHillFarm]

I fed them to the guinea hogs ;)

[@MrSanteeclaus]

Cog Hill Farm -The Dancing Farmer good “waste not”

[@CogHillFarm]

Never ;)

[@janew5351]

What is that finger cutter you are using? Please leave a link.

[@CogHillFarm]

Hoss Tool's Handy Twine Knife, but I use it to harvest with, here is a link: goo.gl/c14uFA :) thanks!!

[@jnetwork7159]

Hey there. Great content! Question for you. Do you know the approximate measurements of the gap between the dowling? I’m going to build one of these for harvest season. Cheers !

[@Lucas_Terry]

[@vincebella3328]

Hey Jason what kind of peas are those? , I always thought that peas were green yours are purple what's up with that ?...

[@CogHillFarm]

Pinkeye Purple Hull Peas

[@meruertmeyer8017]

Takes a long time to get to see the pea sheller

[@peggylindenthaler6503]

About those Pinkeye purple hull peas: Do you plant them at the same time as regular peas?

[@CogHillFarm]

We do

[@debbiebittner8125]

Next time I am stuck in traffic - I am going to be a zinnia

[@CogHillFarm]

LOL YES!!! :)

[@fallingleaves6951]

Debbie Bittner Ha! Made me chuckle out loud. Will have to try it next time the goat breaks into the garden.

[@joylouise5417]

Exactly the time to be a zinnia!

[@ellismidkiff6117]

3:35 my girls both talk like that. I went to the beach recently and a lady from Washington state said where are you from. Right in the middle of NC. Where y’all from? Y’all sound like me.

[@johncnorris]

"These boots were made for dancin' And that's what I'm gonna do. These boots were made for dancin' I'm gonna dance all over you!"

[@CogHillFarm]

LOL!!!!!

[@melodycapehartmedina2264]

So the question is-to can or freeze? What will it be at Cog Hill Farm?

[@CogHillFarm]

We freeze...just more convenient for us

[@DaybirdAviaries]

[@chestinerenaebullardcooper1083]

[@THXSmith]

We're not allowed to pea outside around here.

[@CogHillFarm]

😂😂😂

[@jenniferlillpop6693]

Have a favorite recipe for these?

[@caseymcclellan4221]

Nice de-sheller but looks like there is a lot of waste.

[@CogHillFarm]

It really isn't much waste at all..not even a handful, other than the empty shells. Thanks Casey! :) -Jason
