❓Frequently Asked Questions

What are heirloom tomatoes?

Heirloom tomatoes are traditional tomato varieties grown from seeds that have been passed down through generations. They are valued for their outstanding flavour, natural colours and unique appearance.

Why do heirloom tomatoes look different?

Each variety has its own natural shape, size and colour, making every tomato unique. Their irregular appearance is a sign of traditional cultivation rather than mass production.

Can heirloom tomatoes be cooked?

Yes. They’re delicious roasted, grilled, added to pasta dishes or used in homemade sauces, although many people enjoy them fresh to appreciate their full flavour.

How should heirloom tomatoes be stored?

Store at room temperature until fully ripe. Avoid refrigerating unless absolutely necessary, as cold temperatures can reduce their flavour and texture.
