From Field to Market: Varieties Built for Shelf Life
A great harvest only pays off if the produce arrives in good condition. That is why many of the varieties in our catalog are described by their firmness, skin protection and storage ability, not only by yield.
Firm tomatoes handle transport better, onions with good skin protection store for months, and melons with a strong rind and compact seed cavity keep their quality on the shelf. When you compare varieties, look at these traits alongside yield and taste.
