This bill proposes to designate the pea, specifically the seed from the Pisum sativum plant, as the official state vegetable of Minnesota. The new legal language includes a section that codifies this designation in Minnesota Statutes, chapter 1, under the heading "[1.1482] STATE VEGETABLE."
Additionally, the bill allows for a photograph of a pea to be displayed in the Office of the Secretary of State, further promoting the state's official vegetable. This initiative aims to celebrate and recognize the significance of the pea within Minnesota's agricultural heritage.
