These are all from a site I belong to that is all about tomatoes. These people are the heart and soul of toamto breeding and collecting. Most of the seeds are either donated or collected and some are various crosses they have worked out. Please give them a visit and maybe buy something a few are SASE sites. Help out others like you that have a burning passion for gardening while helping yourselves.

You will find stuff here that you can't find anywhere else.

Thanks

Dono

Dono, I don't belong to a site that is "all about tomatoes" so there are several of these that I haven't seen before! Thank you for posting them.

Altho' I'm not as much involved in this subject as I'd like to be, I do appreciate the generosity of others. One of those generous people is Remy at Sample Seed. She is great! I'd like to cast my one small vote for Remy.

Another person who has had the generosity to put just TONS of information on her website about tomatoes is Tatiana at Tatiana's TomatoBase. She sells seed for only some of the varieties that she provides information on. But, with all the pictures and all so very well organized, with links to other seed sources; it is just amazing! I think she has done a great service for tomato gardeners. I've yet to order from her company but visit her website often and, if I get another vote, I'd like it to go to Tatiana.

Finally, if I get a 3rd vote . . . okay, I'll stop :oops: .

Thanks steve

Yes I just love Remy what a great person.

Tanias site is the bees knees for info. That is where I go first for research and normally don't need to go anywhere else. The only ones she don't have are the new varieties I have but those are brand new and only a few people do.

I also frequent a site that's all about tomatoes and it has the clever name of Tomatoville. :)

Speaking of Remy first, she's been a very long term friend of mine from way back before she ever had a website selling seeds.

And since most of the links posted above were to small family owned businesses I'd like to add the following and all can be found ASAP by Googling:

Adam Gleckler at Glecklerseedmen
Mike Dunton at Victory Seeds
Glenn Drowns at Sandhill Preservation
Jeff Casey at Casey's Heirloom Tomatoes at Airdrie

Right now I can't scroll all the way back to see the first post listings, but Marianne Jones at mariseeds should be there as well IMO.

I don't know how Tania can ever keep up to date with new varieties and creating new pages and checking for which place is selling seeds for this variety now, but she does for the most part.

With my SSE listings alone, I know I'm introducing maybe 11 new varieties that will be new to almost everyone.

And for most of those I'll also be offering seeds in my annual seed offer at Tville.

And Tania is more concerned about having the right varieties true to their original sources than are most folks who sell seeds. Right now I have a list from her of varieties she wants me to look for, older seeds of those varieties, b'c the current seeds that are being sold have morphed into something they shouldn't be as sold at more than one seed site and she herself is concerned about some varieties she has been sent.

And this isn't the first time she's asked for older seeds and that list is longer b'c there are others who are also looking for old seeds of varieties that aren't what they should be.

See, in my case there is at least one advantage to being "old", b/c I've grown tomato varieties for so long that both the seeds and myself age together. :lol:
