Our own range of Chilli Jelly, Relishes, Sauces & Pickles

Chillis Galore are Richard (nickname Wilf) & Kathy, who started growing chillis 17 years ago in Norwich, UK, just to obtain different varieties to use in cooking, so this website was started for a bit of fun, but it has grown from the popularity and response from chilli fans worldwide, and has led to us developing our own homemade chilli jellies, relishes and sauces from our own kitchen. All our plants are still grown in greenhouses in our back garden where we grow different varieties each year, which the progress of can be seen on our growing diary pages each year.

All our sauces are still handmade by Kathy in our home kitchen to our own developed recipes, we do not add any colourants, preservatives or artificial additives, just let the natural flavours and heat of the peppers come through.

Come and sample all our products, or just get some advice for your chilli plants,
we are alway about most Saturdays at farmers markets or events across Norfolk and Suffolk throughout the year

Yearly Growing Diaries

200020012002200320042005200620072008

Each year we try to grow an interesting assortment of chillis, which will appeal to all, whether you only have a small space on a kitchen windowsill, or access to a greenhouse or a conservatory. We've grown the smallest ornamentals which are still edible, but hot to the larger bushes which can reach up to 2 metres if planted into the ground in a greenhouse. If you wish try Hydroponics (check out our growing tips) or have a look at 2004, 2007 or 2008 diary pages, where we tried Greenhouse Sensations GS 100 & 200 kit, and the Wilma 4 pot, everything included to get you started, with great success.
