Heirloom Tomatoes
(available in 2012)

 
Striped Cavern
Mid to late. Light red with orange stripes on outside with scarlet sunburst pattern on inside. Medium (2.5-inch) fruits with a hollow, blocky, pepper-shape that is good for stuffing. Mild, sweet flesh.

Mountain Gold
Mid-season. Beautiful 3-4" round fruits with orange skin and flesh, above average yields. Well-balanced flavour, no cracking and
blemish-free.

Purple Prince
Heritage variety from Siberia. Very popular because it sets fruit in cold weather! Red/brown/black 4-8oz oval to plum-shaped fruit.

Green Zebra
Yellow and green 2" fruits with dark green vertical stripes. Emerald green flesh is juicy, sweet and mild.

 


Yellow Pear
Very old variety, known since the early 1800s, low in acid and easy to grow. Fruits are pear-shaped, sweet. Productive with long, rambling vines.

Greek
Smooth skinned, 3" to 4" round fruits that are an especially nice size for salads. Good yields of crack resistant, heat tolerant tomatoes.
 
Amish Paste

This plant produces lots of pointed, red 10 oz. fruit with excellent flavour. Very meaty, few seeds and great for sauces.


 
These heirloom varieties of tomatoes, prized for their wonderful flavours and unusual colours,
 were started from seeds that Doug has saved. Enjoy them in salads or simply sliced on a plate, drizzled with olive oil
and a sprinkling of fresh-picked basil!
