Yep yep yep that was it,I think I also read about them last year in the

News And Observer,Never had an Heirloom tomato before and want to find out
if they really do taste better than hybird type,Many thanks Jim


Some do really taste better, others are probably grown more of the novelty
(green & white stripes, etc). Whether you'll end up thinking that they

really
do taste better than hybrids depends on which variety you pick.

IMHO, the Pink Brandywine is close to the ultimate tomato for flavor.
Unfortunately, it doesn't produce very well in my garden.


I Read the URL page you posted for their site and Brandywine is on my list
to try.Those two have a nice web page with lots of info.Looks like they
start selling around April 22.Thanks again Jim.
