Heirloom Varieties

Heirloom Varieties

Definition

Traditional plant cultivars passed down through generations, often with distinct flavors, shapes, and cultural histories.

Interpretation

Seeds with stories. Heirlooms hold flavor, memory, resilience. We plant them to protect biodiversity โ€” and to preserve the taste of time.

Living Invitation

Cook with an heirloom vegetable this week โ€” purple carrots, striped tomatoes, rainbow corn. Ask it where it came from.
