Greetings, Chileheads!

A short newsletter to wrap up the 2012 season at midwestchileheads.com, and to let you know what we have planned for 2013.

2012 was a good year. The business got a new look with a new logo and a new website design. On the growing side, we added a small greenhouse in the spring that gave us an earlier start, and we built some new beds and expanded our growing capacity by about 50%,. We spent the hot, extremely dry summer irrigating and tending to the additional plants, and had good production headed into the fall. We were able to harvest quite a bit of new seed varieties, including some new (to us) superhots, but were stopped short by an early frost at the beginning of October. We published our new seed catalog last week, and are ready to fulfill your seed orders for the 2013 season.

You will notice that we no longer offer hot sauce and jellies, but have chosen to focus on seeds and chile powders. The powder sales were wildly successful this year and we sold out of most of the varieties we listed for sale.

After a brief respite during our Indian summer, the beds were fertilized, tilled and mulched with wood chips and are ready for spring planting. 2013 brings a new growing philosophy that will reduce the number of varieties we grow each year but will yield more pods of the chosen varieties. More pods mean more seeds and more powder, so that will be a good thing. The chile types will change, too. Our focus will return to more New Mexico type chile and less to the superhots. With everyone growing their own superhots these days, we felt that a return to our roots was in order.

We hope you like the changes we made, and we look forward to being your growing partner in 2013. Don’t forget that as a valued customer you get a 25% discount on your order by using the coupon code ‟Chilehead‟ at checkout.

Thank you for a great year, Merry Christmas, and have a great 2013!

John
