Tomatoes

[1 gallon tomatoes on trailer] So many tomatoes and so little garden space. It's a classic challenge to try to figure out how to grow just one more tomato plant! I like to think of tomatoes in categories: Early, Cherry-types, Sauce, Salad, Mid season and Late season/Heirlooms. I encourage customers to be the first on their block to have a red tomato by the Fourth of July with an Early type variety; [Tomato potting on party] then to pad out the rest of the season with a decent Mid-season slicer and finish with a whopper of an heirloom. At the greenhouse the tomatoes are displayed with an information sign to help you learn more about them.

The following list notes the heirloom varieties with an *.
