Every year about this time, Vince Hayward, CEO and fourth-generation owner of L.H. Hayward & Co., gives out bags of red beans and green split peas. The 95-year-old Louisiana company, based just outside New Orleans in Harahan, is best known for its Camellia Brand beans.
 âWeâre selling black-eyed peas right now,â Hayward said. âThis year, people donât want to miss their black-eyed peas. We need all the luck we can get.â He laughed.
This time of year is always busy. But 2020 was not a typical year for the bean business. It was a banner year, as shelf-friendly, inexpensive and protein-rich beans were among early pandemic pantry darlings.
