The infamous seasoning pepper. Bred from spicy peppers for nematode resistance but without the heat. They look like one just don't taste like one and have a nice depth of flavor. Can be eaten raw as a bell pepper substitute or cooked in dishes like sofrito. These far outshine bell peppers here for production and can live several years in south or central Florida if protected from frosts. Be aware that these are known to take significantly longer to germinate than many other peppers, sometimes a month or more. But they are worth the wait since they produce for such a long time. Peppers like regular fertilization to produce well. Offer a liquid fertilizer every 3-4 weeks.

Open Pollinated Heirloom Seeds Selected To Thrive

This is a curated collection of seeds I have found to grow well in Florida over the years. It is designed to take the overwhelm and thought process out of figuring out which varieties to select that will actually grow well here.

Some of the seed is saved from myself and other small local growers for harder to source varieties that you can't find online.

The majority of the seed varieties will come from dedicated seed supply companies like Working Food or Southern Exposure Seed Exchange to keep up with demand. We always prioritize localized seed sources which have a sustainable and equitable business model.

Eco-Friendly Packaging

Each seed pack is printed with non-toxic algae ink on 100% post-consumer waste paper.

The packaging is recyclable or compostable once the mailing sticker is removed.
