Very ancient variety from the United States. Its skin is a creamy yellow with some pink undertone, and is very soft with a light down. This all makes this tomato look a bit like a little peach. The taste is exceptional, the skin is soft... makes you want to touch AND eat it.

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.

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!

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.

Plant approximately 2 to 2,5 meters tall. Fruits weigh between 180 and 300 grams and have a diameter of approximately 10 cm. Smooth red-rose skin, sweet and juicy flesh. Performs well in cool climates and short seasons. Discovered in the 1930s in the Joliette area by a farmer named Dufresne. It was given to Armand Savignac of the Clerics of Saint Viator. Due to chronic digestive disorders and a rare malformation, Savignac became a vegetarian and began to grow vegetables. Among different varieties cultivated in his garden was the Savignac tomato.

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).

Determinate.
Plant approximately 1 meter tall. Round fruits with a diameter of approximately 8 cm. Rare tomato variety. Firm flesh with an exquisite taste. All red tomatoes wish they were Plourde.
Grown since 1925 in Saint-Alexandre de Kamouraska, Quebec, by Aurélius Plourde and his family. Handed to Jeannot Pelletier and then to René Paquet. The latter cultivated and selected it before introducing it in Seeds of Diversity Catalog. According to the man who saved this Quebec heirloom : « The Plourde is an old beauty who forgot its own identity ».
