The beautiful Somerset village of Upton Cheney and the traditional stone Manor Farm may seem an unlikely setting for a chilli farm. But it's where Louise Duck successfully grows different varieties of chillis. Chillis are a multi million pound industry in the UK as so many dishes we like to eat these days from pizza to fajitas and curries include them.
She takes Sybil Ruscoe on a tour of the four large polytunnels where she grows a cornucopia of chillis that vary in size, colour and hotness. She makes relishes and sauces which she sells at markets and local shops as well as supplying some for crisp production.
