Pigeon Roost

A wonderful old Kentucky heirloom with a rich family history! Pigeon Roost Pink originated in Clay County, Kentucky, around the Burning Springs, Pigeon Roost, and Blue Hole communities. This treasured variety has been grown and preserved by the Bowling family since the 1930s.
Plants produce beautiful pink beefsteak tomatoes weighing approximately 8–13 ounces. The flavor is a true old-fashioned tomato experience, with a bold, tangy, acidic bite and just a hint of sweetness. If you love that strong, mouthwatering tomato flavor that so many older heirlooms are known for, this one is sure to please!
The fruits are perfect for thick slices on sandwiches, fresh eating, or adding to a beautiful summer tomato platter. A wonderful piece of Kentucky gardening history worth preserving for future generations!
