Common questions

When will my fresh chile ship?

Fresh Hatch chile ships Wednesdays in season, typically late July into October. Check the fresh product page for current availability and shipping status. You'll get a tracking email the day it leaves the farm.

What if my shipment is damaged?

Take photos and start a chat or call us within 4 hours of delivery for fresh or frozen items, or 24 hours for everything else. We refund or reship, your choice. If the order arrived fine but the quality or flavor isn't right, you have 7 days for fresh chile and 30 days for everything else. See our satisfaction guarantee for full details.

Do you ship outside the U.S.?

We ship within the 50 U.S. states only; we do not ship to Puerto Rico or internationally. Frozen chile ships to Alaska and Hawaii by Overnight service. For fresh chile, check current checkout options or contact us about your destination before ordering. See our shipping guide for details.

Can I change my shipping address after ordering?

Only before the shipping label has been printed. Start a chat or call us as soon as possible. Once a label is printed for a perishable order, we cannot change it.
