About Us – WikiPepper.org

Welcome to WikiPepper!

WikiPepper.org was founded by two energy industry professionals who also farm, experiment, breed, and grow at home—the whole deal. One of us has been growing her whole life and the other was dragged in by his curious 6-year-old son’s obsession with super-hots.

WikiPepper.org exists because most pepper info online is either buried, contradictory, or shared in the form of decade-old JPEGs from now-deleted accounts. We wanted a place where serious growers, confused beginners, and OCD-editors can all work toward the “common good.” With a gun to my head, I’d have to define that common good as a consensus that cuts through the bluster and marketing to nail down just exactly what we’re all growing. 

We don’t necessarily eat all the peppers we grow. Some are for science. Some are for leverage. A few are to impress Jodie Foster. 

No banner ads. No clickbait. No affiliate codes. Just helpful information, sources, experiments, and the occasional misfire. We may not be stable, but we are thorough. We look forward to making your acquaintance. Please edit and discuss in good faith. Drop us a line with any comments, suggestions, and concerns. 

We believe that good information should be freely available, but maintaining quality requires time, research, and infrastructure. If you share that belief, consider supporting WikiPepper.

Please donate because this thing was expensive! We don’t sell user data. We don’t interrupt your experience with pop-ups. We don’t inflate traffic with bunk recipes or SEO spam. Our goal is clarity, accuracy, and utility without compromise.

We welcome partnerships with sponsors whose products, tools, or services genuinely help our audience. Any sponsorships we strike will be things we actually use. That may include greenhouse suppliers, irrigation systems, seed vendors, soil amendments, lab equipment, or anything else we think is actually useful. If we feature you, it’s because you offer value—not because you paid to be seen.

Our sponsorship model is simple: unobtrusive mentions and placements, always relevant, always in context.

If you’re a company or individual who wants to align with this project, reach out. Let’s build something lasting and worthwhile.
