If you'd like to buy a particular variety, please remember that the sales are first come, first serve, so please arrive early. Not sure which variety is for you? Google any of the names for descriptions, or head to this page on the Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds' web site. I bought all the seed from BC and they have good descriptions. When possible, I have a link to a picture of the plants we grew last year. All of these pictures were taken at the end of harvest - a few of the plants had seen better days, but all contributed bravely to Chicago TomatoFest 2008. To view the entire album from last year, please see my picassa album.
Plants for Sale:
Black Brandywine - 16 (Slightly under-ripe here, but it was the end of the season).
