RHS Rosemoor is to go chilli crazy in May, hosting its first-ever chilli festival.

The Devon Chilli Fiesta, being organised in partnership with the Dartmoor Chilli Farm, has a theme of 'Growing Chillies' and offers a whole weekend for enthusiasts, gardeners, food lovers and families alike. Commercial chilli growers and experts from across the UK will be on hand to meet visitors and answer their questions.

The terrace marquee will be full of artisan chilli companies from across the UK offering chilli plants, seeds, jewellery, mild to wild chilli sauces, chilli chutneys, chilli chocolate, chilli fudge and much more. Two chefs will demonstrate cooking with chillies, giving visitors ideas and recipes to try at home.

The event runs on May 10 and May 11.
