Instead, the phone rings at Trina’s home, 10 miles away. Inconvenient, we know, but we are in the “boonies.” Payment is by cash, check and money orders only, as we do not accept any credit cards. Sorry, we do not ship or deliver. All prices are subject to change after June 1, 2009. There are many more vegetable varieties at the nursery than in the catalog. Also, we have an incredible selection of herbs and flowers. We look forward to your visit. WE MOVED in 2005 – NEW LOCATION The nursery moved in 2005 away from Trina’s backyard. The nursery for Silver Heights Farm is now located at the Gorzynski Farm at 7381 State Route 52 in Cochecton Center. The nursery is at the front of the fields, next to the big grey block 4-storied barn with a red roof. Parking is alongside Route 52. Please do not park in front of the barn or in the driveway, as the Gorzynski Farm folks need that space for their operation. We are now much easier to find! Directions on page 4. By the way, if you are interested in joining a CSA, the Gorzynski Farm offers this opportunity. You may pick up a brochure when here or contact John or Sue Gorzynski at 845-252-7570 for details. FARMERS’ MARKETS Silver Heights Farm can be found at 3 farmers’ markets this year. On Wednesdays and Saturdays we will be at the west side of Union Square in Manhattan from 8 AM – 6 PM, late April until mid-October. On Sundays we will be at the Callicoon market, Creekside Park on Audley Dorrer Road, 11 AM – 2 PM, mid-May –early-July. We can bring your “wish list” order to any market, with at least 2 day’s notice. You may drop your list at any market or you may e-mail at [email protected]. Also, you may leave a message at 845-482-3608 and we will return your call as soon as we can. Farmers’ market prices will be charged (catalog price, sales tax, transportation costs, all rounded to nearest $0.25). THE SAFE SEED PLEDGE “Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundation as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations. For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who want an alternative, we pledge that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants. The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats. We feel that genetically engineered varieties have been insufficiently tested prior to public release. More research and testing is necessary to further assess the potential risks of genetically engineered seeds. Further, we wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately people and communities.” COVER PICTURE: Special thanks go to my friend, Leona Willis, for the cover art. 2 Welcome to Silver Heights Farm’s eighth catalog of certified organic, heirloom & unusual, open pollinated vegetable transplants. In addition to the vegetables we also list a wide variety of culinary and medicinal herbs. Not all herbs are available all growing season. Also, we grow an eclectic collection of old-fashioned flowers not listed in this catalog. We grow Butterfly Bushes every year because they tickle our fancy and attract hummingbirds, butterflies, moths and other pollinators. Backyard gardeners will find these treasures are worth browsing for. There are a few NEW selections this year that hold the promise of performing well in the Northeast, especially in the shorter, cooler summers of the Catskill region of New York. Regional and backyard differences in flavor and productivity will abound. Each year we find certain varieties of seeds are no longer commercially available and heritage vegetables disappear from the commercial market. However, demand from gardeners continues to help keep most seed varieties available commercially. We make great efforts to find rare seeds of wonderful vegetables. If one of your favorites is missing, please help us find a seed source. Open pollinated plants are the unheralded champions of our agricultural heritage. Their amazing genetic diversity has been developed and shepherded through the centuries by families and farmers alike. Gardeners and farmers once routinely saved a seedcrop every year for the next year’s bounty. Folks selected seeds from plants that exhibited valued characteristics so that they could enjoy this year’s bounty in the following years. Saving seeds once had a recognized, valuable place in the circle of life. Once again, we are highlighting ARK plants – those that have received Slow Foods distinctive recognition for the need to preserve endangered foods and their associated economic, social and cultural heritage. ARK plants that we grow include the following: Crane Melon, Beans –Cherokee Trail of Tears, Christmas Lima, Hutterite Soup, Mayflower, True Red Cranberry, Mississippi Silver Hull Cow Pea, Aunt Molly’s Ground Cherry, Lettuces – Amish Deer Tongue, Grandpa Admire’s, Speckled, Tennis Ball, Peppers – Beaver Dam, Bull Nose, Fish, Chiltepin, Hinkelhatz, Jimmy Nardello’s, Sheepnose, Wenk’s Yellow Hots, Amish Pie Pumpkin, Moon & Stars Watermelon, and Boston Marrow and Sibley Winter Squashes. ARK Tomatoes we grow include: Amish Paste, Aunt Ruby’s German Green, Brandywine Sudduth’s Strain, Burbank, Chalk’s Early Jewel, Cherokee Purple, Djena Lee’s Golden Girl, German Pink, Mortgage Lifter, Orange Oxheart, Red Fig and Valencia. Go to www.SlowFoodUSA.org to learn more. Through learning and then teaching others how to save seeds, the rapidly disappearing genetic diversity of our plants can be preserved by gardener and farmer alike. The plants offered in this catalog provide the basic growing stock for seed saving – as well as enriching our tablefare and other delights from the garden. Quite a few of these varieties have been grown for 50 or more years. These are recognized as treasured heirlooms. These are plants that were selected and bred by individuals and their families, some that entire communities maintained over the years, and some that institutions intentionally developed to meet specific needs. When an heirloom’s “story” is known, it is included in our brief description. Here you will find the names of many dedicated plant breeders and backyard gardeners, of seed companies that introduced varieties from the many corners of the world, and of seed saving organizations that strive to ensure the preservation of older breeds of plants. We are always interested in learning any details you can share with us, including your triumphs and disappointments. ABOUT THIS CATALOG Our plants are grown organically, certified by NOFA-NY Certified Organic, LLC (producer #200123). Each plant has a short description of unique characteristics. Synonyms of a variety are listed when known. Vegetables have listed a maturity date, which is the approximate number of days from transplanting into your garden before you get to pick something ripe. If a variety is at least 50 years old, it is an heirloom, which is noted and where it is from, when known. At the heading for each kind of vegetable or herb is a listing of available pots sizes and their corresponding prices. All pots and packs have deeper than normal root space, unlike most bedding plants. Deeper roots give your transplants a greater boost when moved to the garden site. Experimentation becomes more feasible when a gardener can select individual plants, instead of entire packs. Pot sizes generally are 2-1/2”, 4” and quarts. Some larger sizes are available, too. Packs come in several sizes and you may purchase them either as single packs or as entire trays: 804s 4-packs, with 8 packs to a tray 32 plants per tray 806s 6-packs, with 8 packs to a tray 48 plants per tray 606s 6-packs, with 6 packs to a tray 36 plants per tray Nursery Location: 7381 State Route 52 Cochecton Center, NY 12727 Mailing Address: 216 Eggler Road Jeffersonville, NY 12748 Telephone and Fax: 845-482-3608 E-mail: [email protected] www.silverheightsfarm.com 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS Artichoke and Cardoon 5 Beans, Limas and Cowpeas 5 Broccoli and Broccolo 5 Brussels Sprouts, Cabbage 6 Pepper: 17-23 Cauliflower 7 Hot 17 Celeriac, Celery & Cutting Celery 7 Paprika & Seasoning 20 Corn 8 Sweet 21 Cucumber and Gherkin 8 Eggplant 10 Tomato: 26-45 Greens 12 Container 26 Leeks 12 Small, up to 2 oz. 26 Lettuce and Lettuce-Likes 13 Medium, 2-8 oz. 30 Melon 14 Large, 8-16 oz. 34 Okra 16 Oxheart 38 Onion 16 Very Large, 1 pound+ 39 Peas 17 Processing 43 Pepper 17 Stuffing 44 Pumpkin 23 Rhubarb 24 Summer Squash 24 Tomatillo, Ground Cherry, etc. 25 Tomato 26 Watermelon and Citron 45 Winter Squash 46 Herbs __ DIRECTIONS From NYC: Take NY Thruway I-287 North towards Albany.

Gerard Chargualaf and Mari Marutani, Cooperative Extension & Outreach College of Natural & Applied Sciences, University of Guam Most Capsicum peppers are known for their spicy heat. Some varieties have little to no spice such as paprika, banana peppers, and bell peppers. The spice heat of Capsicum peppers are measured and reported as Scoville Heat Units (SHU). In 1912, American pharmacist, Wilbur Scoville, developed a test known as the, Scoville Organoleptic Test, which was used to measure pungency (spice heat) of Capsicum peppers. Since the 1980s, pungency has been more accurately measured by high-performance liquid chromatography Source: https://phys.org/news/2009-06-domestication- (HPLC).

  • 1. Introduction
    1. INTRODUCTION Biodiversity refers to the variability of life all the living species of animals, plants and microorganisms on earth. According to Hawksworth (2002), fungi are a major component of biodiversities, essential for the survival of other organisms and are crucial in global ecological processes. Fungi being ubiquitous organisms, occur in all types of habitats and are the most adaptable organisms. The soil is one of the most important habitats for microorganisms like bacteria, fungi, yeasts, nematodes, etc. The filamentous fungi are the major contributors to soil biomass (Alexander, 1977). They form the major group of organotrophic organisms responsible for the decomposition of organic compounds. Their activity participates in the biodeterioration and biodegradation of toxic substances in the soil (Rangaswami and Bagyaraj, 1998). It has been found that more number of genera and species of fungi exist in soil than in any other environment (Nagmani et al., 2005). Contributing to the nutrient cycle and the maintenance of ecosystem fungi play an important role in soil formation, soil fertility, soil structure and soil improvement (Pan et al., 2008). Fungi take a very important position in structure and function of ecosystem. They decompose organic matter from humus, nutrients, assimilate soil carbon and fix organic nutrients. An intense study of the abundance and diversity of soil microorganisms can divulge their role in nutrient recycling in ecosystem.
