It's Time to Order the Tomatoes

I buy my Heirloom Tomato seedlings through, Verrill Farm.   Today I'm going to place my order for seedlings.  To see their list of Tomatoes for this year, download their PDF order form here...  Tomato Order Form.  You can call Verrill farm at: 978-369-4494 to place your order or you can email them at info@verrillfarm.com. 

Take your time in reading through the varieties of tomatoes that they have, their description, timing and where you will eventually plant them.

Here is what I will be ordering this year. 

Cherry
I like Cherry tomatoes for many reasons, but the main reason why I grow them is for their versatility with respect to use in cooking or salads, their early arrival and their high yields- enough said!  For my family two plants suffice.  Here are the two I will be ordering.

      Take your time in reviewing the Tomato Order Form and the different varieties.  If you live in the greater Boston area I recommend you consider Verrill Farm. If not, check with your local farm's or nurseries if they have these varieties.  Have fun!
