Hot peppers you don't even have to pick. Just pull the plant up at the end of the year and hang it somewhere. They're not good to plant if you have a lot of rabbits in the area.

Peppers are another crop that takes little room for the amount you get. Tomatoes and peppers are also very easy for to grow. Helps a lot in my case. I grow most of the things I do just for the satisfaction and relaxation of doing it but...it sure does save a few bucks as well. Veggie stands up here charge around $2.50lb for tomatoes. Not many tomatoes to a pound. The only time we buy much in the summer now is when my wife and sisters decide to spend a weekend canning and making sauce for the winter. The stands run pretty good late summer deals on bushels of tomatoes. With 3 or more people doing it it goes pretty fast. My brother-in-law and I do our own olives as well. Get them by the case at the farmers market and do the brine and jarring our self. Go through a ton of garlic as well. It's great in the olives. Also put a lot of them up in olive oil. Really got the taste for that in later years. Loaf of real good bread and dip it into warm extra virgin olive oil....Man!
