Tomato Breeding & Northern Trait Selection
Wednesday, August 12 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm

Fresh homegrown tomato season is just around the corner! Come learn the breeding stories of the tomatoes featured in this years’ Citizen Seed Trial, and developed in Canada by independent breeder, Karen Olivier. A search for flavour and short-season tomato varieties, led this Northern Gardener down the path to breeding dozens of tomatoes over the past 15 years, with many successful varieties showing up around the globe. Get a taste for what happens behind the scenes in northern variety development.
