On this page, you will find all the information that I have here on the blog and on YouTube about peppers.
Peppers are an amazing crop for the homesteader! They come in so many different shapes, colors, and flavors. There are many ways to preserve them and cook them.
They are a staple in the garden and sell great at the market. They are a sign of the peak of summer and even though it takes some effort to grow them, they are worth it!
