The peppercorn plant, which belongs to the Piperaceae plant family, is a woody evergreen vine that grows to some ten metres with dark green, broad, somewhat oval shaped leaves. It uses aerial roots to cling to, and climb trees.

Peppercorn plants have small white flowers that bloom in clusters of up to 150 florets and hang down a spike. These flowers then ripen into the little berries known as peppercorns. It takes several years for a young plant to flower and begin to produce fruit.

We at Peppercorn wish to plant the seeds that will enable those less fortunate than ourselves to flourish and to become self-reliant.
