Red
Varieties

tomatoes with a pointed bottom.
Moskvich J: "Fruits are early, deep
red, and cold tolerant. Rich taste."
Red Sun J: "A
flavorful Celebrity type with larger, prettier, deep red fruit and more crack
resistance." This one does very well on
our farm.
Rutgers F: Red
tomato with "that great old-time flavor."
Paragon J: Large main crop variety
with heavy fruit set.
Yellow
Varieties
Taxi J: "Concentrated early set." This is the only early yellow tomato we
grow. We only planted 2 rows. Can you tell how productive it is?
Golden Sunray S:
"Golden-yellow fruits, full tomato flavor."
Other
Varieties
Rose J: "Deep
pink and smoother than Brandywine, Rose is
every bit as large, meaty, and flavorful."
Rose de Berne F: "This French
emigré is a superior medium-sized pink tomato that delivers the robust flavor
of the bigger types. It has a rich
sweetness the others can't match." One
of our favorites.
Paul
Robeson B : "This famous tomato has almost a cult
following among tomato connoisseurs, who cannot get enough of this variety's
amazing flavor that is so distinctive, rich and smoky.
Japanese
Black Trifele B : "The flavor is
absolutely sublime, having all the richness of fine chocolate." You decide.
Nebraska Wedding S: Meaty orange fruits with "well-balanced
flavor."
Jubilee F: "The best medium-sized
open-pollinated orange tomato, Jubilee ripens smooth-textured sweet mild meaty
8 oz. globes."
Green Zebra F: "A most unusual beast in
the tomato menagerie, this zebra starts out green with dark green stripes,
softening and blushing yellow when it ripens."
Tigerella T: Red, orange and yellow
striped, medium-sized tomato.
Ruby Gold F: As
aesthetically appealing as it is delicious, Ruby boasts prolific beautiful huge
red-streaked yellow fruits with marbled interior flesh.
Cherry
Sun Gold F: "To quote one of our customers, 'Without these little babies,
there's no summer.' The best cherry tomato
ever developed, a perfect combination of deep sweetness with a hint of acid
tartness. Splits readily after rain."
Sweet Baby Girl: Standard red cherry.
Plum
Juliet J : "Delicious, rich tomato taste for salads, great
salsa, and fresh pasta sauce."
Blue Beech F: "This Roma type has been acclimated in Vermont for the last 50 years so it is much
more adaptable to cold climates than Roma. It usually makes a richly textured
sweet sauce that's just brimming with flavor."
Orange Banana F: "The proof is in the eating and Orange Banana has several times
been the clear winner of our annual autumn paste taste. Comments from this
year's tasters include, 'the best flavor and sweetness yet, wow!' and 'gourmet
candlelight.' No wonder Banana has become a staple of famous tomato sauces.
Its amazing sprightly sweet flavor, reminiscent of Sungold but with more depth
and diverse tones, makes an ambrosial sauce by itself and adds a vivid fruity
complexity to any sauce with other tomato varieties."
Striped Roman F: "Near the top in our 2005 sauce test for its rich tomatoey
sweetness and good texture. An
underground favorite of many seed savers, Roman is just beginning to find its
way into commerce."
