Why are Hatch Chiles Special?

Hatch Chiles are only harvested in August and September, and these truly unique, meaty green peppers only grow in the fertile soil of Hatch Valley, New Mexico. The nutrient-rich soil, intense sunlight and cool desert nights of the Hatch Valley give the chiles their one-of-a-kind taste. They are packed with earthy flavor and develop heat levels ranging from mild to extra hot.
