The dates are set for the 2009 Heirloom Tomato Seedling Sale! From Saturday May 16 to Saturday May 30 (excluding Sundays) we will be offering over 70 fantastic varieties of heirloom tomatoes. We are increasing the seedling numbers. However we expect to sell out of some of our new varieties quickly so if you want to try these please reserve early. We will hold reserve orders only until May 27th (unless other arrangements are made). If they are not picked up by that time we will put them out for general sale. We are currently working on our 2009 varieties list and we hope we can post them to the website by early in the new year.
New Varieties for 2009
We are adding 30 new varieties to our list of favourite tomatoes from last year. In response to customer request this list will include a 6 oz red - Russian Siletz, the gigantic Sicilian Saucer, and Gregori's Altai a wonderful pink heirloom from Siberia. Added to our collection of heirloom tomatoes we will be offering a good selection of other heirloom vegetable seedlings. This year we tested a great leaf/romaine style lettuce called Webb's Wonderful Lettuce and have for two years grown the unusual Romanesco apple-green cauliflower - sometimes called the Christmas tree cauliflower. These will be among the vegetable seedlings offered at the 2009 sale.
At the 2008 sale our herbs sold out very early so this year we will also expand their number and variety.
Looking forward to seeing you all again - we have made so many new acquaintances who share our passion for heirlooms. If you have any requests for us to grow a particular variety please contact us as soon as possible so that we can source the seeds.
Best regards,
Roger & Gloria
