This ancient squash is rather unique. It originates from Australia, from where it was imported in the 1930s. Triamble squashes are light steel blue and grow three distinct lobes; this uncommon look makes it a nice decoration. But do not be mistaken, its taste is just as enjoyable as its look! The flesh is orange, sweet and of high quality, ideal in soups or purées.

Our number 1 squash! Very popular a few generations ago, this winter squash almost disappeared in favor of more productive and standard varieties. Its crooked neck was judged ill-suited for industrial commerce and long distance shipping. To answer the criteria of modern market, the Canada Crookneck was used to develop the Butternut variety. But Canada Crookneck has a unique flavor. Is is listed on Slow Food Ark of Taste. Excellent in soups, exquisite as chips and fries and so sweet it can be used instead of sweet potato in your recipes. It is slowly making a comeback, thanks to small seed producers. At Terre Promise we hope to grow, save and spread the Canada Crookneck for many years to come!

Also called Gombo, this plant produces a fruit that can be eaten raw or cooked, with a taste somewhat similar to eggplant. Young leaves can replace spinach. In some countries, the mature seeds are roasted and used as coffee beans. A member of the hibiscus family (Okra latin name is Hibiscus esculentus), its flower is one of the most beautiful in the garden. Originally from Africa, Okra entered Spain in the 8th Century with the moorish invasion. Later introduced in the United States by African slaves, it was considered for some time as poor people food. It is an essential ingredient in gumbo and is commonly used in Louisiana and Southern States cuisine.

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.
