Growing peppers is simple and brag-worthy – once you grow one, you will be hooked and want to grow every kind of pepper available. From mild, to hot, to super-hot – our fascination with peppers continues to grow. Between 1980 and 2020, Chile pepper consumption increased more than 2X, from three pounds to seven pounds per person according to the New Mexico State University’s Department of Agricultural Economics. Our fascination with spicy has transcended from a culinary choice to daring challenges and a relentless pursuit of the spicy treat.
