Peppers...

                                                                               

Below is a list of most of the pepper plants we grow.  We also grow other vegetable seedlings, primarily tomatoes and  eggplants.   Other edibles (for transplanting) are arugula, cantalope, cucumber, kohlrabi, mixed lettuces, rhubarb, alpine strawberries, swiss chard, watercress, zucchini.  These are available at the farm for a few weeks from mid-May through early June.   Our wide selection of homegrown Perennials and Herbs is available from May 1st through September.

We grow only great tasting varieties that produce well in Wisconsin.
