At the website for Tomato Grower Supply Company, they sell Mountain Fresh VF Hybrid tomatoes. In it's description, it states that they were developed by Dr. Randy Gardner at North Carolina State University.

A friend of a friend said that they are the best tasting tomatoes that he's ever tried. I've never had them personally.

I currently have 12 Mountain Pride seedlings(first in the mountain series) growing indoors waiting to be planted out in the garden. it's my first time growing this variety but I here many good things about the mountain series. I'm not to sure where you can get some seeds but you might want to check you're local nursery for seedlings.
