Heirloom tomatoes are more difficult to grow than the newer hybrids but their taste and in some cases size are much better. Heirlooms need just the right soil and tend to be very large plants while producing less fruit. Some may say that staking and tending to the plants is too much effort for too few tomatoes.
We grow pink brandywine and when everything is just right this makes it all worthwhile. Almost 30 ounces of great flavor with just 2 tomatoes.
Eat local, fresh from garden to table.
