In the first few pages of Chapter Three, Kingsolver talks about heirloom vegetables and says “these titles stand for real stories.” What is meant by the title is heirloom plants give off seeds that end up being saved and used for many generations (112).

After describing multiple instances of Louie’s friends who have died in combat and the very real risks that are associated with flying in combat, the narrator follows with this quote, emphasizing how unlikely rescue at sea was. Although “the military was dedicated to finding crash and ditching survivors” (90), “the improbability of rescue, coupled with the soaring rate of accidental crashes, created a terrible equation” (91).
