Today I received an email from a seed company I occasionally order from announcing that from 1 January “new rules coming in” (ahem) meant they were no longer able to stock most varieties of heirloom tomatoes. And went on to suggest that these varieties would be “disappearing from the UK for good”.
Does anyone know what this is about? I’m not trying to start a conversation about politics but are a lot of the heirloom seeds we grow sourced from the EU, so we won’t be able to get them after 1 Jan? Surely there’s nothing to stop a UK seed company growing them here for seed production?
