So lucky to live in the Bay Area of CA. Our local Farmers' Market has an all organic farmer growing many varieties of peppers. Now they are sharing their dried pepper powders including the Esplette and Chimayo seasonings. Check them out here if you are interested. http://www.borbafamilyfarms.com.
I still enjoy making my own spice and seasoning blends using your recipes as inspiration. But an organic local source makes sampling much easier. Thought you'd like to know.

Hello Michael,
I would also highly recommend Baker Creek heirloom seeds their website is Rareseeds.com, they have a pretty extensive list of varieties. I have Flats going right now with 80 plants and germination was around 95%.

Just to let you know, Old Barn Nursery either has gone under or their host service has. Tried to reach the site and got this message: ERR_NAME_RESOLUTION_FAILED
The domain is still registered, but DNS has no record for it. Their other site buckeyepepper.com is also down as well. Appears the McDermotts may have packed it in. Their YouTube channel has not been updated in several years either. And finally, their Facebook page is also MIA.
Just sayin'
Oh and keep warm. Greetings from Southeast Texas (Houston Area)
