Hot Pepper Herb Farm Great Falls, SC

Hot Pepper Herb Farm Great Falls, SC We grow a wide variety of vegetables, herbs, fruit and berries practicing only organic and sustainable principles. Each year we try to grow new veggies.

Our farm is located off Highway 21 south of Rock Hill, SC.( Great Falls SC) We have been selling at the Matthews Community Farmers Market since 2005. The hours there change with the season so watch for information on that. Winter hours are Saturday from 8 am till 10 am. Although we are not certified organic, we practice sustainable, agronomy and organic principles. Our farm is definitely "Earth

Friendly" We probably grow a vegetable for every letter of the alphabet. Cathy used to be an art major and it shows in her cultivation of beautiful colorful delicious crops. In addition, we grow starter plants and herbs. We are constantly expanding our orchard of fruit trees and berry bushes, offering a wide variety of unique produce. We run a "Flexible CSA" called" Field to Fridge." Unlike your typical box of goodies from a farm, we give you the option to come to the market and pick out what you want, when you want it. Membership starts at $100. We sell to numerous restaurants in the Charlotte area, donate and collect for Friendship Trays Charlotte and work with Churches and Organizations donating plants for their gardens. Ask Cathy to grow something for you and she will give it a try. Eric makes some beautiful cedar and apple cooking planks all grown from local wood. As our name indicates we are quite fond of peppers and grow everything from sweet marconis, to peppers that will blow your head off. When they are not in season we have an extensive selection of dry peppers for you to choose from; as well as other dried goods. Plus we have an addictive spicy peanut brittle,that you will absolutely love. So come visit us at the market. Appointments can be made to come visit the farm.

Happy New Year Everyone!!

Well, it has been more than a minute since the last newsletter. It has taken me a while to get adjusted and settled into the new house in Rock Hill. Although I am not “in town”, I am very close to shopping and restaurants and have easy access to I-77 and I-485. So, getting into Charlotte and Matthews is extremely easy compared to coming from Great Falls. The neighborhood is quiet, but the general noise level and light pollution are higher than on the farm, and it is taking a bit to get used to it. But, all-in-all, it was the right decision, and I am glad it is over.


My new endeavor, McCall's Orchard and Gardening Services is starting to take shape. The woodworking shop is coming along, and I have several projects on the books. I also have been working with two non-profits, Sleeps in Heavenly Pease and She Built this City.

The blueberries, figs, elderberries, and persimmons are planted, and I have grapes and peach trees on order. Those should be delivered this month. More of the same type as on the farm but scaled down for personal use.

That being said, on Saturday, January 17, 2026, I will be teaching a class in conjunction with Renfrow’s Hardware in Matthews, NC on “Fruit Trees- Best Practices”. The class is tentatively scheduled to run from 2:00-4:00.

The class will meet at Renfrow's Hardware for an overview and then proceed to their farm for the “hands-on” portion of the class.

-We will review:

-The Structure of a Tree

-Pruning

-Equipment

-Fertilizing

-Spraying

-House Keeping

-Thinning and Harvesting

-Planting

-Culture

-Mistakes

By the end of the class, you will be able to select the proper trees for your site, the best location on your site, plant and maintain your fruit trees for a bountiful harvest. You will be able to bring your orchard to fruition.

Next week’s newsletter will include sign-up information, which will be done through Renfrow’s but in the meantime, reserve the date.

I look forward to a full class. Attendance is limited, so stay tuned for further details. I hope to see you then.

Until then

“May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, the rains fall soft upon your fields, and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.”
