Freezing Blackk-eyed peas for market

This is our first year of going to Market. Our black-eyed peas are coming on strong. We went to Market yesterday and all but sold out but came home and picked about 3 bushels and have a couple of bushels on the plants ready to be picked.

We only go to Market on Saturdays. Is it acceptable or even a good idea to freeze the early week peas and then sell them on Saturday? They are shelled and in quart ziplock bags.

How do you store things that you pick early in the week for a weekend market? We refrigerate them but they really do not do as well as I would like to sell a week later.
