I think Marilyn just hit on it.  And the pepper "fruit" is not excluded in
Arizona or California.  Rich, you should print that out and take it with
you.

Most Arizona inspection stations are closed going into Arizona from
California, but I'm not sure about coming into Arizona from New Mexico.  As
far as I know, the inspection station at Parker going into California from
Arizona is also closed, if you want to go out of your way a few miles.  I
think you'll be fine bringing the peppers back, but if they do stop you at
the border, just head on back to Yuma and mail them to me or Curt.  :)
Preferably me.

One of my friends gets about 40 pounds of those New Mexico chiles every
year, in burlap bags.  She gets them from a friend, so I'm not sure how they
are transported from New Mexico to California.
