Heirloom Tomatoes

heirloom tomatoes are old varieties for which seeds have been handed down over many years – sometimes generations

The beauty of heirloom varieties is their colours, shapes and sizes, but most of all their delicious, full flavours. At Wandin Yallock Farms, we’ve selected what we believe are the best, from among hundreds of different varieties.

Heirloom varieties are harder to grow than your average commercial supermarket varieties. They are also much lower yielding. But the result is produce that delights our customers, so it’s worth the great care we take to sustainably manage our plants to produce premium quality tomatoes.

To Store

Tomatoes are best stored cool, but not cold. Don’t put them in your fridge as cold temperatures destroy the flavour. For the longest shelf life, store your vine-ripened tomatoes no colder than 10-12.5 degrees Celsius, in a relatively humid environment, and away from produce such as apples and bananas that produce ethylene - the natural fruit ripening agent.
