Judged Taste-OffA panel of judges (civic and business leaders, celebrities, local personalities, athletes, etc.) will do blind tasting. All you need to do is bring your chile! For green, bring 3 lbs. fresh chile, and we’ll do the roasting. For red, bring 3 lbs. of pod, flake, or powder, and we’ll prepare and serve it. |
People's ChoiceThe public can sample chile directly from you and other growers at the event then vote for their favorites. Whoever receives the most votes wins! Bring a table where you can share samples of your chile, like in a farmers market. Also you can sell your chile and chile products, such as fresh chile, powder, ristras, salsa, etc. We’ll even provide the roasters! |
