New Mexico is the leading producer of chiles in the USA. Since 1998 they've had 21,000 acres under cultivation.
There are over 2000 varieties.
The town of Hatch holds an annual Chile Festival every September.
On the day we drove through town we saw ristras hanging from almost every building and many rooftops loaded with read chiles.
