I'd rather pick peas than going to work for 8 hours in a job I hate. Your videos help make my day go faster. Thanks, Donald. You're so adorable!

Spent many hours on mamaws front porch shelling purple hulled peas. I LOVE them! Just ate two huge helpings of good ole Mississippi purple hulled peas.

Taylor Manufacturing is located in Moultrie, GA in little more than a tin barn. We have 2 of their 515 shellers. They will shell 2 bushels each every 8 minutes. This year we bought a HullerPro sheller & was gonna park the 25 year old 515. But, we produced more than ever & brought 'Ole Betsy' out of retirement.

I would hate to invest money into something I could do by hand, but you're going through so much volume, its very worth it IMO. And if/when times do get bad, you're going to be happy you have it because the more food you can produce, the more you're going to be able to sell or trade if you wanted to.

Hey Willie, Once I found out just how much I love those PHPs more and more got planted. Taylor’s Little Sheller turned out to be just as valuable as the tiller for my tractor. Shelling peas has become a pleasure now and I want to plant even more. : ) …….Donald

Great video Donald. We usually only plant enough purple hull peas to harvest about 3-5 pounds of peas, and we shell by hand. We are planning to increase the pea planting by several times next spring and had been discussing a pea sheller like the manual one that you use. After seeing your video, I believe that we'll skip it and look for something better.

I saw that pea sheller on one web site from your site and that sounds like a good idea. You do have plenty of peas and could go to the farmers market to see some of what you grow since many want it fresh rather than from Mexico, or other countries where you don't know what they used to grow them. The farmers market is growing in Little Rock more and they have more places now for people to get locally grown produce and get it fresher too.

More cities are learning to use the vacant properties which the cities have taken over to let the people in the area grow gardens also. I live in a rural area so we have land to plant crops and with so much of our food being affected by chemicals more people are awaking to the facts that they are poisoning their families off of food grown in other countries with no restrictions.

I only have 80 feet of purple hulls planted. I was going to shell them by hand because I didn't know about pea shellers - gonna get me the little hand crank job. I had a Belgian Malinois that would sniff out cucumbers... but then he'd eat them, which did me no good

MORE POWER! Nice. I wonder if you could somehow hook up like a funnel to a skinny tube with a curve toward the feeder that acts like a slide to automatically align them to enter under that thing straight and do it faster with less work. Like more of an industrial version. It might jam up, i don't know. It depends on how much you are going to process at a time and how long it takes, to decide if its worth making one. LOL @ ending.

I enjoyed that - although I was really interested that you called those 'peas' as if I saw them in the shop I would definitely call them beans! I'm in Australia! I'm really confused about why you buy the seed every year... peas and beans are so easy to save the seed - you just leave the pods on the bushes until they dry - save the pods somewhere dry and airy - and shell them just before you plant the seed in the ground!
