Black and Red Boar

Raffles · October 10, 2011

I picked up a few seeds for next year and was curious as to why it does not seem to be listed on the Wild Boar Farm website any more. Has he dropped it or just renamed it?

The reviews look good from people that have grown it so I'm looking forward to having a taste.

I got seeds from Baker Creek back in 2008. After growing it for 2 years, I can recommend it for both taste and productivity.

Early last year, I asked Brad if it was, in fact, one of his (because I couldn't see where it was listed as a Wild Boar Farms variety) and he answered that it was one of his older ones. He said it would be good to compare it to some of his recent creations and I ended up sending him about a hundred or so seeds. I haven't heard anything from him since then.

Maybe he'll read this and let us all know what's happening (wink ... wink ... nudge ... nudge). How about it, Brad????
