Judging from your series of questions, you are planning your garden for the season. You can get lots of gardening information that is specific to Iowa on the Iowa Extension website. Its address is:

I am sorry but a cashew will not grow in Iowa unless you have a really good and warm greenhouse. They are very tropical trees and we in south Florida sometimes have a difficult time growing them here.
Did you know that cashews are related to mangoes and poison ivy?

Definitely not cashews. Maybe peanuts but I doubt it without a greenhouse.

cashews are tropical and grow on large tropical evergreens, so i don't think they can be grown in Iowa. peanuts are grown in warmer climates like the southern US and south america, but you could give it a try.
good luck!
