OUR TOMATOES

We pick our tomatoes Ripe. Do not confuse this with “Vine Ripe”. Our “ripe" means red. “Vine Ripe” means they are picked when the green tomato “starts “ to turn a color other than green.

Because we pick our tomatoes at the red ripe stage, they taste better. The down side is shelf life and firmness. This mostly affects the ship-ability and since we sell most at our own farm stand you'd never know that. They will last for days once brought home. But, they won’t feel like a water balloon and they still can’t be substituted for a baseball in a pinch.


We grow 15-20 regular round tomato varieties. Some are better early and some are better in the heat of the summer and summer (haha) better late in the season. 


We grow more than 25 varieties of cherry and grape tomatoes (some are heirlooms).

OUR HEIRLOOM TOMATOES ARE MAGICALLY DELICIOUS!

  • They are EXTREMELY FRAGILE so please don’t over handle them —they can’t take the punishment.
  • They do not produce high yields.
  • We grow over 75 varieties of these tasty old varieties.
  • They often look funny and oftentimes misshapen. This doesn’t effect flavor.
  • They have funny names like Copia, Church and Big Rainbow and… well they have funny names.
  • They are yummy. Yes, we grow almost everything here on the farm!


**NEVER, EVER put tomatoes into the refrigerator (unless you want to cool them down just before dinner.)**
