Finally have our first chili peppers. Every season we try something new to see for ourselves what grows best in our area. Can’t wait to taste these! ・・・ #growninhaiti #chili #pepper #hot #spicy #organic #homegrown #haiti #ayiti #organic #locallyadapted #seeds #heirloom #nogmos #nopesticides #noherbicides #foodforests #agroforestry https://www.instagram.com/p/BzbW_CthXRs/?igshid=j1ip8rozzv10

Guess what just got planted in the seed garden @chefbjdennis. So excited to share these seeds! Known as Moruga Hill Rice, Trinidad Hill Rice or Upland Bearded Rice, it’s a variety of rice developed for dry cultivation for planting at elevation instead of water impoundments. The Merikans of Trinidad maintained this seed stock which was originally brought out of West Africa in 1789 by Captain Nathaniel Cutting and planted in Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Kentucky in the first decades of the 19th century. I grew up eating this variety of rice and I’m so excited to have it back! #growninhaiti #trinidadhillrice #uplandbeardedrice #morugahillrice #haiti #ayiti #cultivation #propagation #seedgarden #seedshare #seedlibrary #locallyadapted #preservation #seedkeeper #heritage #heirloom #ancestral #rice #foodsecurity #nogmos #noherbicides #nopesricides https://www.instagram.com/p/Bngr7kQnxGi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1tdayla16ys8h
