"WE'RE FEEDING THE WORLD WITH HEIRLOOM TOMATOES"

Our heirloom tomato seed selection of over 600 varieties originates from many different climates to assure you a selection that will be suited to your garden and growing zone. We are diligent about including the origin, family and plant history with each tomato description. We treat these heirloom tomato seeds as our precious legacy. We harvest each piece of fruit by hand, ourselves, and maintain notes of each variety plant characteristics and fruit taste...all to assure you the best quality, true-to-type tomato seed varieties.

We have assembled probably the best tomato seed collections you will find anywhere. If you are unsure of a selection right for you try one or more of these collections to get you started.

We offer tomatoes in many color groups: Yellow/Orange (Gold) tomatoes; Pink tomatoes; Red tomatoes (of course);Bi-colored tomatoes; and Other-Colored tomatoes (green, white, amber, blue). Be adventurous in your selection to choose colors and varieties that are unfamiliar to you. You will enjoy immense pleasures in the exploration.

We probably have the largest selection of purple/ "black" heirloom tomatoes. Don't miss the opportunity to mix these in your garden with your other colors. "Black" Tomatoes (not really black) are native to the Southern Ukraine. They also hail from Germany, Yugoslavia and the America. Black heirloom tomatoes are among our top favorites because of their generally exceptional rich, complex tomato flavors. Our excellent selection of black tomato seeds are the finest tasting and most popular varieties (Black Krim, Paul Robeson, Black Cherry, Black Ethopian, Black from Tula, Black Prince, Black, Cherokee Chocolate, Japanese Black Trifele, Nyagous, Black Plum just to name a few.)

And don't be afraid to try the green tomato varieties such as, Aunt Ruby's German Green, Green Grape, Evergreen, Grandma Oliver's Green and my favorite, Green Giant. (All these green heirloom tomatoes are ripe when soft to the touch, and SWEET!. Or try our favorite white heirloom tomatoes for delicate sweet flavors (Halfmoon China, Great White, Potato Leaf White, Sutton, White Beauty, White Rabbit and White Queen.)
