Okay, all you gardeners out there, time to think about putting up some veggies for the winter. With regard to snap peas (edible pea pods) -   to blanch or not to blanch, that is the question.

It's about 50-50 according to what I've read on-line. Those opposed say the necessity to blanch went out with the availability of better quality freezers. I'd love to eliminate that step    if I can, but want to find top quality when I go to use them this winter.

And how about Kale? Anybody ever freeze it with good results?

Thanks for any thoughts from the seasoned gardeners in mudville!
