I’ve tried different varieties of tomatoes and will be sticking with the Heinz.

They are reliable producers, great, uniform and virtually blemish free fruit, and great taste.

I can’t eat tomatoes any more and mr mm does not like raw tomatoes, God knows why.

After my disaster of a season with tomatoes (we got another 5” of rain in the past three days!) I was thinking about that Heinz tomato and a few other ‘classics’ like ‘Celebrity’ and ‘Amish Paste’ and other successes I have had through the years. I need to get back to them and stick with them.

Granted, it’s fun to experiment once in a while, and I wouldn’t have found my absolute FAVORITE tomatoes in the ‘Chef’s Choice’ and ‘Goliath’ series, or ‘Grandma’s Pick’ if I hadn’t of tried them out along the way.

I’ve grown a lot of different varieties through the years, mainly so I could help customers when they were deciding on which seeds to try that year. I miss that job. Some days. Well, rarely, but once in a great while, LOL!

‘Retirement’ on the farm is SO MUCH BETTER than any other job I’ve ever had. :)
