Heirloom Tomatoes



Tasty heirloom tomatoes lovingly grown in our vegetable garden.
Believe it or not, the green tomato (in both photos) is ripe and delicious! I sliced it to show you the beautiful interior.
Heirloom tomatoes come in many colors - red, pink, orange, white, yellow, green, purple and blackish-purple.

An heirloom tomato (also called heritage tomato in the UK) is an heirloom plant, an open-pollinated (non-hybrid) cultivar of tomato. For more information on heirloom tomatoes, please click on: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heirloom_tomato
