Some helpful questions to help narrow down your selection are:

         1. How do I like to eat tomatoes?

                  a) If on sandwiches: get a beefsteak variety.

                  b) If in salads: get a medium, cherry or salad tomato.

                  c) If as a snack in the garden: get a cherry tomato.

                  d) If in a sauce: get plum or paste tomatoes.

         2. What colour tomato do I like? A different coloured variety or just red? Look under the colours you want.

         3. Where will I be growing it? In the ground or in a container? We have tomatoes suitable for all growing conditions.

We will have limited quantities of veggies available this year including basic herbs, kale, lettuce, cucumbers, peppers and more. We are not planning on having any preorder for these products.  We plan to have more available next season. 

There are a number of reasons why we no longer carry certain varieties.

        1. We may no longer be able to source seed (ie. Brown Berry or Mixteca Yellow).

        2. We may have had trouble with blight on the plants in previous sales (ie. Aunt Ginny's Purple).

        3.  Customer feedback might have indicated problems with a variety.

        4. We may have sold very few plants in previous years.

    If we no longer carry a variety that you enjoyed, ask us for a similar variety. We will certainly have something similar. We are interested in growing new varieties so let us know you would like a particular variety and we may be able to source it for you.

We do not ship seedlings by mail or courier. Our business is primarily local.
