That is so awesome! I still remember shelling peas at my grandparent's house, picked right out of their garden. I used to sneak down in between shelling to pick the raspberries off the vine, too. hehe!
I remember many an hour shelling peas and snapping beans with my great-great and great-grandmothers. I loved it. We'd snap or shell, and they'd tell me stories while we worked.
Glad the boys are getting to make the same sort of special memories.

Great shots! Were the boys really, really helpful... or only for a bit? My boys didn't particularly care for chores such as this!

Plenty of breaks. What a great way for the boys to be growing up, participating the way they do.

Cute! And if I were helping, I'd put one in the bowl, one in my mouth! I LOVE fresh peas!

I hope they really did help a little bit and that it wasn't just a passing fancy. It's better than watching TV.

Looks like the breaks were long,haha.
At least it is a skill they will have when they get older .

It looks like a very nice time.
I would like to shell peas.
I have always loved doing that too.
