Bell peppers

How They Grow

• Jolife peppers are grown in different varieties; they stand out for the shape of the fruit, bell-shaped or elongated.
• The cultivation of Jolife peppers occurs both in open field and in a protected environment.
• The harvesting of Jolife peppers is scalar: only ripe fruits are collected, while unripe fruits are left on the plant.
• Jolife peppers are harvested manually, with the help of shears. The fruits are delicately placed into suitable containers, to avoid damage.

Their benefits

• Naturally rich in vitamin C and provitamin A.
• They have a higher vitamin C content than lemons and oranges.
• They help to prevent early aging, tumours and cardiovascular diseases.
• Vitamins are fragile and they deteriorate with cooking: to retain their goodness, we recommend that you eat the peppers raw.
