Beaver Dam Pepper Seeds - A Mildly Spicy Heirloom Delight

Discover the unique charm of Beaver Dam Pepper Seeds, a treasured Hungarian heirloom prized for its sweet, crunchy flavor with a slow-building mild heat. These horn-shaped peppers grow 6 inches long and 2-1/2 inches wide, transitioning from bright green to vibrant red when ripe. Perfect for stuffing, goulash, or pickling, they bring a delightful balance of sweetness and gentle spice to your garden and kitchen.

Why Grow Beaver Dam Peppers?

Brought to Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, in 1912, this open-pollinated heirloom thrives on compact 18 inch tall plants, making it ideal for small gardens or containers. With a mild Scoville rating of 1,000, it offers just a hint of warmth - like a bell pepper with a subtle kick. Its versatility shines in dishes, from stuffed peppers to tangy pickled treats. Try out the Easy Refrigerator Pickled Peppers Recipe.

Growing Your Beaver Dam Peppers

Start these heirloom seeds indoors 8 weeks before the last frost. Plant 1/4" inch deep in sterile soil, maintain 85°F bottom heat, and keep moist. Germination takes 7–21 days. Transplant seedlings with 6 true leaves into rich soil (24 inches apart) or 5-gallon containers. Harvest green or wait for a bold red finish.

I have just sowed the seeds, they are currently germinating, but I have always had good luck with your other pepper seed varieties so I'm sure they will do fine weather permitting.

Nice Big Peppers

Great seeds, nearly all sprouted, grew quickly into robust plants loaded with peppers. We loved them so much, we will grow these every year!

These make the Best Pickled Peppers!

I use your Easy Refrigerator Pickled Peppers recipe to pickle these peppers all summer long. They're delicious and crunchy. Nice looking, productive plants.

Great stuffer

I grew the Beaver Dam for the first time in 2018. It took a long time for the peppers to turn red, but it was worth the wait. We used these to make traditional stuffed peppers. The mild kick was a welcomed surprise. I would use these as a poblano, as well. I also used these to bulk up my hot sauce ferments. This is a great pepper that I will grow every year.
