Making labels now, so excited!

Yeah, I RLL into a corner, but there's no harm, as the walls are padded with bubble mailers.

10 packs of tomatoes (minimum 5 seeds each, 10 is fine), makes things reasonably easy. Adding the Nifty Fifty (50 packs of a variety) will makes things go smoother, as 50 participants X 50 packs = 2500 packs, this will be about 25% of the ~10,000 packs of tomato seeds.

Peppers (minimum 10 seeds per pack) are much more difficult to sort out than tomatoes. I'm hoping quality/rarity over quantity will be sent in, and hopefully multiple packs (~10?) of those varieties.

Beans, peas, and other legumes (minimum 5 seeds per pack) are not as popular as tomatoes and peppers, maybe 15-25 participants compared to 100+ of tomatoes. With beans, anyone wanting more than 5 seeds may request multiple packs of a single variety. If you'd like, you can send beans in bulk packs, and I can split them up depending on demand by participants.

With flowers, and other veggie/fruit seed, I don't require a minimum seed amount per pack, but I'd like to again see multiple packs of any variety sent in.

The green fruit is sweet and no heat, but the flavor is superb. My question here is, what the heck is this pepper? I'd like to know anything anybody knows about Sugar Pepper. Thank you.

It's a good thread to raise the question, and an excellent thread if you're going to send in seeds.

For now just call it Sugar Pepper. A web search draws a blank for me. Did you save the label from the original pack? Do you remember how you swapped for it?
