Fire Island's Red Hot Chilli Growers

Have you ever wanted to not just grow chillies but grow them well? We are holding our popular course again to give you the chance to do just that, whether you’re a spice aficionado or just fancy growing something different! 

We’ll cover everything you need to know from getting started to harvesting and preservation (including fermentation and making your own hot sauce). You’ll get to choose your own seeds having learnt about the different types from the Chilli Farm’s seed catalogue including anything from an ornamental Firecracker to the infamous Caroline Reaper which you’ll sow and take home.

Course includes; selection of 4 different varieties of seed (2 of each), pots, compost, course notes plus tea/coffee and cake. 

We are a working smallholding and there are areas of uneven ground. We recommend you wear sturdy shoes and warm clothing (the course will be indoors in our polytunel). Please let us know in advance if you have any mobility problems and we will discuss any necessary arrangements with you to ensure you can fully take part in our course.

Price includes refreshments, seeds, compost and comprehensive notes to take home. Please let us know of any dietary requirements in advance and we will be happy to accommodate.
