Category:McMurray Legacy

Dan & Val McMurray were giants in the world of tomatoes and seed saving. I met Dan & Val when I lived in the interior of BC, and was lucky enough to be able to visit with them, and visit their home, on several occasions. They were active online in several tomato and seed saving communities, and their philosophy of pay it forward not only influence me, but many within that world.

So many of my varieties were originally theirs, and I became the recipient of part of their collection after Dan passed away after Val. I wanted to commemorate all those varieties, and as I grow them out and add them to the wiki, this section will grow.

Thanks Dan & Val for your dedication to tomatoes and seed saving, because of you innumerable varieties have survived to this day.

The Creston Community Seed Saving Society was founded with Dan & Val's collection when he passed. You can read about their origins here.

Dan & Val's old blog is located here. Here is a link to the archived version in case it gets taken down by blogspot in the future.
