As you can see from Henry’s Seed Order. Henry loves variety, including many vegetables from all over the world, and many heirloom varieties. "Heirloom” is a general term for any vegetable that is not a hybrid. These vegetables generally came from seeds that immigrants brought with them to the U.S. and then grew year after year in their backyards, collecting seeds each year to plant the next year. Heirloom varieties are often much tastier, and much less transportable, than commercial varieties. Over the past 50 years, there has been a huge shift in commercial varieties. They are now selected purely for cosmetic appearances, transportability and shelf-life. If you want a tomato to taste like a tomato, you have to go back to the heirloom varieties, which are not uniform in size or shape or color, not very transportable, and not long-lasting on the shelf. Instead you get flavor, flavor, flavor. If you’re interested in growing some Heirloom vegetables, a good source is SeedSavers Exchange .
