Minneapolis Farmers Market has folks selling Heirloom Tomatoes. One
vendor (a helper, not the grower) couldn't tell me if that was the name
of the varietal or simply a broader term for something that's not a
hybrid. I'm thinking it's the latter and the young woman simply didn't
know the varietal. Am I right?



A follow up. Here is a list of one person's offerings of heirloom
tomatoes. I did not bother to count. I am growing Cherokee Purple
and Black Plum.
