North Dakota/Upper Midwest Heirlooms???

cybermeowz · January 30, 2010

Hello everyone.

I am new here and I have a question for the tomato experts. I grew about 100 different tomato heirlooms last year thanks to some wonderful exchanges I participated in on another site. I guess that makes me a new tomato addict. I sold the left over seedlings to others in my town. The one tomato heirloom that I got asked about was Sheyenne. I had several people tell me that their mother grew this tomato. I didn't have that tomato seed last year but I do now. I would like to grow more heirlooms from my part of the country this year so I am wondering what other heirlooms have their roots in North Dakota or the upper widwest. I know that Big Rainbow came out of Minnesota. So I guess my question is what other heirloom tomatoes have their roots in North Dakota and the surrounding states (Minnesota, Montana, South Dakota)???

Thank you so much for whatever info you can give me!!!
