Heirloom seeds are open-pollinated seeds that have been passed down through
generations, typically for at least 50 years. They are prized for their genetic
diversity, superior flavor, and the ability to be saved and replanted each year
while maintaining their traits. Unlike hybrid or genetically modified seeds,
heirloom varieties are naturally pollinated by wind, insects, or birds.
