About Heirloom Seeds
An heirloom seed
variety has been saved and passed down from generation to generation.
These seeds have been carefully cultivated and are considered a
great value to the recipient. Some say an heirloom variety is 50
years old or more. Some heirloom varieties have been passed down for
over 100 years and others for over 400 years. Heirloom Seeds can be very unique like the Lemon Cucumber and others are just like the produce you buy in the store (only tastier) like the Roma Tomato. An heirloom seed is neither a Hybrid or a GMO. A Hybrid seed is seed produced by cross-pollinated plants. Hybrid seed production is predominant in agriculture and home gardening. A GMO, or
"genetically modified organisms," are plants or animals created
through the gene splicing techniques of biotechnology (also called
genetic engineering, or GE). This experimental technology merges DNA
from different species, creating unstable combinations of plant, animal,
bacterial and viral genes that cannot occur in nature or in
traditional crossbreeding.
As always, If you have additional questions please feel free to ask. We are always happy to help! -Mary
