The seeds were organically grown, 2013 harvest, open pollinated. I grow and collect all of my own seeds in my own organic garden. All of my seeds are non-GMO. They are properly handled (fermented in the case of tomatoes), dried, and stored in a cool place for optimal germination.
The last 2 photos are of other types of tomatoes I will be listing.

Chocolate Cherry Tomato:
70 days. As irresistible as a chocolate covered cherry, but without all of the guilt. These cherries have both skin and flesh shaded an attractive combination of port wine and chestnut with a comparably delicious and multifaceted flavor. The super productive, indeterminate plants produce trusses of 1 inch round fruit nonstop.
Black from Tula Tomato:
70-80 days. A unique, large 8-12 oz. dark tomato exhibiting a rich, deep purplish-brown color. Some seed savers say it is the best tasting of all the dark tomatoes. Very rich, old-fashioned flavor, sweet and spicy. A rare Russian heirloom.
Paul Robeson:
Named after the operatic artist who won acclaim as an advocate of equal rights for Blacks. This "black" beefsteak tomato is slightly flattened, round, and grows to 4-inches. Deep, rich colors stand it apart from others. Dusky, dark-red, with dark-green shoulders, and red flesh in it's center. Very flavorful fruits with luscious, earthy, exotic flavors and good acid/sweet balance. Won "Best of Show" at Carmel TomatoFest.
