I reached out to Krissy at the Booneville collective and asked about fresh and whole dried peppers. I'll probably hear from her after the weekend. I tasted a fresh one once at the ranch of an apple grower in Philo. 
If you want fresh peppers, you'll have to wait until harvest, around October-November.
