Our selection of organic heirloom seed includes many varieties noted for their interesting history, unique appearance and exceptional flavor. Heirlooms are open-pollinated varieties that pre-date modern breeding work. Because heirloom varieties precede the commercialization of agriculture, the seeds for these varieties were not produced by seed companies and sold to the public but rather grown on a localized and small scale and passed along from neighbor to neighbor and within families for generations. Many heirloom varieties are currently enjoying revivals as the public gains appreciation for their importance in maintaining genetic diversity, their historical appeal and superior flavor.
