Flavor took a backseat in the breeding of hybrids in favor of characteristics that enhanced pro- ductivity, uniformity, disease-resistance, and long shelf life. Heirlooms can have their downside. Though some heirlooms are quite pro- ductive, many produce lower yields than hybrids. Also, heirloom fruits have soft- er flesh and thinner skins, making them less suited to long-term storage because they are more likely to bruise or spoil. But tender skins, plump juiciness, appe- tizing texture, and unadulterated flavor is a big part of what makes growing heir- looms so appealing for a home gardener. WHAT IS AN HEIRLOOM? A consensus as to what defines an heirloom still eludes us. One constant that experts When it comes to growing and eating the best-tasting tomato, agree upon is that it must be an open-pol- linated variety. However, not all open-pol- there’s nothing better than a juicy, homegrown heirloom picked linated varieties are heirlooms. Purists define heirlooms as varieties right off the vine.

What Are Heirlooms and Why Bother with Heirloom Tomatoes? “Heirloom” or heritage crop varieties are usually old cultivars, no longer in wide use by large-scale commercial growers. Some are truly hand-me-down selections nurtured by generations of family gardeners; others may be early releases from USDA or land grant university breeding programs that remain in limited use by gardeners and small farmers. One thing everyone agrees on is that all heirloom varieties are non-hybrid and not genetically-engineered.
