  • Despite rising fuel and farm inputs costs, one couple has created a thriving homestead business by combining no-dig and organic growing practices with a profitable crop - chilis. This is their story of how a chance decision to grow chilis for personal use developed into a profitable and even market-competitive business venture. It's an inspiration to all who want to reclaim farming on a small scale!

      We couldn't harvest the seeds for future years as they would be hybridised so we do buy in seeds from another farm each year.
