Guest guest Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Greetings Members: Just a note. If items like these aren't available in shopping areas check out www.diamondorganic.com. Elaine Organic Heirloom Tomatoes Heirloom tomatoes are a welcome addition to the summer table. On a hot day they are a juicy snack alternative to sweet fruits, and at dinner they can easily become the centerpiece of the meal. If you've never grown your own tomatoes, it can be hard to understand just how good a good tomato is- tomatoes eaten fully ripe, fresh from the garden, and warm from the sun bear little resemblance to their supermarket cardboard-cutout cousins. Heirloom tomatoes especially have flavors, colors and textures that are markedly different than regular store bought tomatoes. The colors normally determine the amount of acidity - darker colors are more acidic and lighter colors are less acidic. Deep red tomatoes tend to be the sweetest, yellow and orange varieties are mild with a sweet flavor, while purple and black varieties have a bold, rich, acidic flavor. Our heirlooms come to your door ripe and ready to eat - just slice and enjoy, or add to your favorite recipes. Heirloom Tomato Toy Box A real treat for the true tomato lover. This 8 lb box of heirloom tomatoes includes many of the varieties shown below. Includes FedEx overnight delivery to most areas. $70 Organic Heirloom Tomatoes by the Pound Order tomatoes by the pound.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2004 Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Greetings family, I saw heirloom tomatoes at Glut. I think that they were organic. If you're interested you might want to call them to see if they still have them. Their phone number is 301-779-1978. Peace , " E.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 Greetings. just wanted to share some experimenting I'M doing in my garden. i.ve grown only heirloom (purple cherokee) tomatoes and no problems w/ bugs. last year the other ones attracted bugs. Also the romaine lettuce thrives much longer w/out water than the green and red leaf. i believe the later are more hybrid. Same results w/ thw heirloom tomatoes. Thay are also more filling and heartier to me. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
