Overview
Peacework is an early, open-pollinated sweet pepper selected on Peacework Farm in western New York by Elizabeth Henderson and her crew, together with Cornell University and the Organic Seed Partnership during the late 1990s. The plants are small and typically set about six medium, blocky, thick-walled fruit each, with green fruit ready around 65 days. Because the plants are small and the foliage is not dense, the fruit can sunscald; give a little afternoon shade in hot regions or plant closely. A good pick for organic growers in the Northeast who want an early bell and the ability to save seed.
