We have grown heirloom tomatoes for Farmers Market for some 20 years ~ and now, we have finally found time to develop a line of seeds from our selection of the very best tomatoes!
Our passion for garlic has naturally led us to a passion for sauces; you will love the variety of color, taste and texture these selections provide!
If you are new to gardening, or lost in a maze of tomato varieties, these selections will help take the guesswork out of planning your tomato garden. These are not just our personal favorites; they are the tomatoes our market customers rave about and return for, week after week!
So here are six of our favorite sauce tomatoes, in full spectrum color for nutritional balance!
Amish Paste: Ark of Taste favorite; meaty and flavorful for either sauce or fresh eating
Black Russian
Mama Leone
Opalka: "an extraordinary cooking tomato with an intense, concentrated flavor." -- Amy Goldman
Orange Banana: "will make you swoon . . . fruity and rich . . . makes an ambrosial sauce" -- Amy Goldman
Principe Borghese: wonderful small Italian tomato for sauce or drying
Each package will contain at least 20 seeds, so the six-variety packages will include over 120 seeds. You may purchase individual varieties, or all six at a substantial discount. We hope you will have as much fun and good eating from these tomatoes as we do!
All seeds are 2009 crop, now ready for the 2010 season!
Our yarns, nuts, and particularly our garden seeds, make perfect holiday gifts in synergy with our shared goals of environmental protection, sustainability, and food security.
Consider our wide range of heirloom vegetable, herb, and flower seeds as gifts or stocking stuffers this year ~ grow your own and promote genetic diversity!
