Bere Barley
| 5376 | 3" | 3" x 3" | Bere Barley
Bere Island is north of Britain and prior to the 20th century, this barley was widely grown in this area. Characteristics which suit it to this area include a rapid growth rate and a reputed tolerance to acidic soils.
In most areas, however, Bere was progressively replaced by higher yielding modern varieties and by the 1990s only about 10 ha were still in cultivation mostly in Orkney, Sutherland and Shetland. Survival in Orkney has been linked closely to a local Mill, which still produces Bere flour, which is mainly used locally in a range of food products (bannocks, bread and biscuits).
Analyses of Bere flour has shown it to be a source of magnesium, zinc and iodine and to contain significant amounts of folate, thiamine and pantothenic acid. It is therefore thought to have potential as a functional food (Theobald et al., 2006) and the Agronomy Institute is investigating new bakery markets for Bere flour.
Historical accounts show that Bere was previously used widely for producing malt which would have been used for making both beer and whiskey. Information & Photo Source: Agronomy Institute, Orkney College

Tomato (Small)
Siberian
[polytunnel]
| 20 | 1' 7" | 1' 5" x 1' 11" | Siberia Certified Naturally Grown Seed
50 days, determinate This tomato variety sets fruit very early. They are bright red and weigh up to five ounce. Reported as being capable of setting fruits at 38F, however, 'Siberia', like any other tomato, is not actually frost hardy.
'Siberia' was discovered by Ron Driskill, a horticulture teacher at the Jack James Secondary School in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, on sale at a local nursery. The nurseryman told him that a woman touring Canada from the Soviet Union in 1975 stopped by the greenhouse and supplied ten seeds. The woman told them that the variety was being trialed in Siberia at that time.
Mr. Driskill saw its potential and became a big promoter of the variety to Northern gardeners, first giving seeds away in exchange for a self-addressed stamped envelope and ultimately starting a small, family operated seed company appropriately named The Siberia Seed Company. Each packet contains approximately 20 seeds. |
