We planted 3 pepper plants (poblano, jalapeño, and Anaheim) in a raised garden bed. Tomatoes in the same bed are doing just fine. We feel like they are getting enough watering but any help would be appreciated!

How hot is it where you're at? I have some overwintered peppers that are still full of fruit that set earlier in the season, but pretty much every flower has fallen off for a while now. High heat doesn't reduce flowering much, but it does dramatically stop fruit production.
If you're in the US, I'm in a hardiness zone of 8b/9a though. We have a very long growing season so I know I'll get a fall harvest as well out of both new and old plants.
