Product Description
Quebec #13 Tomato
3,55 $
This tomato variety was developed in the early 50s by the geneticist and profesor Joseph-O Vandal. He worked for the Laval University for over 30 years, and created several horticultural varieties adapted to our climate. Quebec #13 tomatoes are vigorous and give average-sized dark red fruits early in the season. This tomato has an exceptional taste, very few seeds, and a thin skin which is easy to peel off. This variety must be eaten in the days following harvest as it doesn’t keep as well as store-bought tomatoes.

Back in the 60s, Mr. Réginald Lefebvre owned a farm in St-Rémi, QC. On some day, a couple Spaniards ask him if they can use some of his land to grow their tomatoes. He accepts, and quickly discovers the potential of one of their variety. So much that he begins growing it himself. In 1981, there is no successor to take over and the farm has to be sold. A sad end, but not for the tomato which made history!

Indeterminate tomato giving multiple burgundy fruits, each barely bigger than a golf ball. The taste is well-balanced in terms of sweetness and acidity, making this variety one of our favorite cherry tomato. Perfect to eat straight from the plant as we stroll around the garden! The skin is thin and the flesh is very juicy. We've found this treasure during a trip in Ontario, at a seed farm (Antique Edibles).

The Red Fig tomato is an heirloom variety from Philadelphia, dating back to 1805. The tomatoes were traditionally dehydrated to be kept all year long, and eaten as little figs during the winter, hence the name. The fruits are sweet, pear-shaped, and measure about 1 1/2 inch.

This dark pink tomato comes from the Lower Saint-Lawrence, more specifically from Rivière-du-Loup. The seeds come from Mrs. Francine Mailloux. She gifted some to René Paquet, who gave them to Michel Richard (Potager d'Antan), who then handed them to me. It is now our turn to share them with you!
René describes this tomato as hefty and says that the indeterminate plant will have high yields of pink-fleshed red-skinned fruits. They will usually weight between 400 and 850 grams, but could be even heavier in some cases.

Indeterminate.
Plant approximately 1,20 meters tall. Fruits between 150 and 250 grams.
This tomato is a cross between Black Krim and Zapotec tomatoes. It combines the best traits of these two heirloom classics. The flavor of the Black Ruffle is exceptional. The red purple fruit is pleated like an accordion. It is a rare variety really worth discovering.
