Tomatoes: Why Homegrown Taste Better

Nourish is a show about food – what it says about who we are, where we're from, and the ties that connect us. Twice each month, we’ll explore the people, culture, and SCIENCE behind what we eat - from farm to table. Think of this show as food for your mind, body, and soul.

Tomatoes: Why Homegrown Taste Better

Season 1 Episode 5 | 9m 18s | CC

Ever wonder why homegrown tomatoes taste so much better than ones you buy in a store? Renowned seed saver and farmer John Coykendall hits it out of the park with this explanation – and shows how heirloom veggies, like tomatoes, link us to our ancestors!
