Pea designation as the state vegetable
SF 2080 designates the pea (Pisum sativum) as Minnesota's official state vegetable. The bill requires a photograph of a pea to be displayed in the Office of the Secretary of State. This is a ceremonial, non-substantive bill with no practical impact on laws, regulations, or people's lives - it solely adds a symbolic designation to state government. It does not affect agriculture, policy, or funding.
