This document provides instructions for saving tomato seeds from open pollinated or heirloom tomato varieties. It explains that tomato blossoms must be bagged before opening to ensure the seeds produced are true to the parent plant. Ripe tomatoes should be allowed to mature on the plant before removing seeds, which then must be fermented to destroy diseases and remove gel inhibiting germination. After fermentation and washing, the seeds should be dried and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer for long term storage. Saving heirloom tomato seeds helps preserve genetic diversity and culinary heritage.
