San Marzano Piccolo Tomato
San Marzano Piccolo Tomato is an awesome variety for canning whole and for using in salads. They are sweet and delicious. Surprisingly, these began to ripen a little late, but when they did, we had a total blast. Our indeterminate plants were loaded from top to bottom and never stopped until frost. I found these to be a great snack because they were small and delivered a great tomato experience. Nice clusters of 7-10. Exceptional in salads sliced or whole, cooking or making stews etc. Try dehydrating some of these too, so good! -
Santa Domingo Pueblo Pepper
Santa Domingo Pueblo Pepper is a great cooking pepper that has medium heat. 3-5 inch, these are also great for drying when ripened. Thin stemmed plants are short and grow to about about 2.5- 3 feet tall. These are early producing! Nice for fresh salsas, flakes and powder too. Nice size harvest and hardy plants. I actually planted my 2020 crop in soil that was less than desirable and they still did very well. Peppers have a slightly sweet taste and are very tasty! About 16,000 SHU. -
Serrano Pepper
Although I had eaten it many times, I had never grown Serrano Pepper before 2020. I am happy that I did! Short plants produced abundantly and gave us copious amounts of 2-3 inch peppers that turned bright red when well ripened. I really love these for flakes, cooking whole in soups, fresh salsa, for sauces and even powder. Awesome when dried or dehydrated whole! I've heard that these are great when roasted! Truly a great all purpose chili! Give them a shot!! -
Siegel's Dark Striped Tomato
Siegel's Dark Striped Tomato is a very rich tasting, 5-8 ounce, bi-colored fruit. I really like this one because of its complex taste and earthiness. Very nice for slicing, this variety looks beautiful on a platter and has an amazing aroma when fully ripened! These plants were prolific and hardy. They started ripening with their first fruits about 78 days from transplant. Prolific and hardy, these are also very good for cooking! Right off the vine they are amazing! We made out pretty good with this one! -
Snegirjok Micro Dwarf Tomato
A standout variety in our micro grow-outs, Snegirjok micro dwarf tomato produced so many red cherries that they totally caught me by surprise. Averaging 12 inches tall, this micro is just a pleasure to grow. Its flavor is also very good! Mildly sweet with a good balance of tartness, these are perfect snackers that will keep you returning for more. Ours did excellently both in 4/4 and one gallon containers, without much difference in size of production. A must try! Note: I've also grown these spelled as "Snegirjoc". -
Stevie Pepper
I love, love this pepper. If you can tolerate the heat, Stevie pepper will definitely please you! Not only is it pretty, but tangled in it's heat, is some distant fruitiness. When. cooked whole in my beans, its aroma was something to appreciate! Our plants were about 3 feet tall and produced a little late. Production was good and plants were exceptionally good in extremely hot weather and periods of drought. Great for some nice powder or flakes. I can definitely see this in some spicy soup or gumbo, YUMM! -

Super Nova Tomato
Super Nova tomato is a one pound, yellow beefsteak. These are coming highly recommended because I like them a lot. Texture is smooth, taste is well balanced but on the sweet side. These are definitely sandwich and slicing tomatoes. Huge plants produce well, but they are not prolific, so production, I would have to describe, as good! The first ripened tomatoes were around the 80th day after transplant. A really great choice if you like your tomatoes yellows, large and well balanced! -
If you love pesto, or salad with basil, basil tea or anything basil, you will find much comfort in growing out some of these. Perhaps the most popular basil and still one of my favorites, Sweet Italian Basil is a staple in our household. Easy to grow, this very flavorful variety is ready for harvest form sprouts to maturity, which is when ever you wish throughout its growth cycle. Pluck some sprouts for your salads or garnish or harvest bigger leaves at any point for any dish that you choose. Here, we make almost any salad and tomato dish using basils of many kinds.

Sweet Pickle Pepper
Perfect for Pickling, Sweet Pickle pepper exceeded all of our expectations in 2020. Compact plants of perhaps 2 feet tall, produced so many peppers that often they reminded me of a Christmas tree with decorations. When unripened, these can have a purple splotching, but they ripen to a bright red. Crisp and sweet, these are perfect for salads, canning, cooking and of course pickling. Would work well for market sales also. Get your canning jars ready, you'll have plenty uses for them! -
Taiga Tomato
Karen Olivier has done it again! Her Taiga tomato made big waves in our garden in 2020. I just can't believe how beautiful and tasty these are! 6-12 ounce oxhearts are produced on tall potato leafed plants that start ripening around mid season(75-80 days). Give them a chance to ripen well, then cut and taste. You will find that these are a little fruity, juicy, have lots of nicely textured meat and are delicious! Deceptively weighty, there aren't too many seeds in this gem. Plants are very hardy and are recommended for northern gardens too! Awesome selection for slicing, sandwiches, garnish, cooking or just eating right of the vine. -
Thai Basil
I love just about any variety of basil, but Thai Basil is my absolute favorite! For me, no Asian dish can go wrong when I use it. One of my favorite Thai dishes is Pad Kee Mao (Thai Drunken Noodles). When done correctly, the inclusion of Thai Basil takes it over the top! I also love this basil in soups, Thai Pineapple Fried Rice and many different Indian dishes. I say all of this to say that this really easy to grow basil can fill so many holes in your dishes, even when you didn't know it would. A very versatile variety with fantastic aroma and wonderful flavor. I even make wonderful tasting tea with this variety! Definitely a must grow if you love basil. Dry and save for winter.

Thunder Mountain Longhorn Pepper
Planted these and basically walked away! I returned to the longest, curly, most beautiful and unique things that can possibly grow on a pepper plant. Many were over 1 foot long. Short plants are highly productive! These ripen red and can easily be dried with seeds inside. Very nice flavor and not too hot for true chili lovers. Perfect for flakes, cooking fresh, powder and so much more. Thunder Mountain Longhorn pepper is a must grow, all purpose pepper! Approximately 30,000-40,000 SHU. -
True Black Brandywine Tomato
One of my new favorites, I first grew True Black Brandywine tomato in 2020. Because it carries the Brandywine name, I expect it to be excellent, and it was! The 5 feet tall, potato plants, produced a nice amount of 10 ounce, deep brown fruits. They were pretty and mostly blemished free. Aroma on fully ripened fruits were fantastic. I made some awesome fresh salsa with these! I also made some super tomato sandwiches with True Black Brandywine. If you are seeking a hardy, easy to handle, delicious variety, please check these out! -
True Colors Tomato
Again, another fascinating bi-colored oxheart from Karen Olivier. Like Midnight Sun, True Colors will blow you away with its taste and beauty. It's almost ironic that this variety is called True Colors when its colors almost seem unreal. Then on the other hand, perhaps that's exactly what Karen planned. These wispy, potato leafed plants, produced 8-14 ounce oxhearts that were always beautiful. Vines were skinny and lanky and would need early staking. Plants produced plenty, though not prolific. I was certainly pleased with production. These were bred by in Canada by Karen and will be suitable for northern gardens. When fully ripened, these are sweeter, sort of fruity and medium mild. Balance and texture are superb! 70-75 days -
Van Wert Ohio Tomato
A very useful and delicious variety, Van Wert Ohio tomato is a heavy producer of mid sized red and blemished free fruits. The plants seemed to have held on to every bloom and began to ripen about 75 days after being transplant into the garden. What I really loved about this variety was its disease resistance. It was one of the very best this year. Taste is old fashion, balanced and very pleasing. A very nice all purpose variety for situations such as cooking, sandwiches, slicing, market sales and even sauces. Check these out and try a few plants in your next garden! 5-7 ounces -
Vates Blue Scotch Curled Kale
If you love kale, Vates Blue Scotch Curled would be an awesome variety for you to try. Plants are short, perhaps 12 inches and produce some of the most beautiful and nutritious leaves that you could ever find. These can be used in salads, garnish, in soups or anything that you use kale for. Especially sweet after a light frost and is reasonably cold hardy. Plant in early spring for summer harvest, or, if you wish, in late summer for a fall harvest. -
Waltham Butternut Squash
I love Butternut Squash so much! This year, I was fortunate to have a patch of these. I harvested tons and tons. Presently in my basement there are at least enough to last me through the winter. I am looking forward to making winter dishes. I especially love them oven baked, wrapped in foil, with good butter and a touch of sugar salt and black pepper. But I also love to make soups and bisque. Cooke in an Indian cut style with coconut milk and spices is absolutely delicious. Nutritious, delicious and filling! Just a few vines will give you enough food for many months! Some fruits can get pretty large! -
West Virginia Penitentiary Tomato
A true old fashioned heirloom, West Virginia Penitentiary tomato dates back to the 1940s -50's. It's is said to have been grown by prisoners in the State, then sold to local markets. This red tomato has a nice balanced taste of sweets and tarts and makes a wonderful tomato sandwich. Plants were about 6 feet tall and produced plenty of 8-14 ounce fruits. I especially appreciated its resistance to early and late blight. These hardy plants were still producing green tomatoes in October. On October 7th I pulled all of my plants and got plenty of greens from these to make pickles. Truly a blessing, especially for the heirloom enthusiast! -
West Virginia Sweetmeat Tomato
West Virginia Sweetmeat tomato is an Amish variety that can easily reach 2.5 pounds. In fact, about 10% of earlier fruits reached and surpassed that mark. A few were 3 pounds or more! Healthy, regular leafed plants, are hard working and produce quite nicely, though not prolific. Production was very pleasing and nonstop until season's end. The flavor is sweet, very rich and delicious. Texture was also very good. Plants MUST be staked properly, with some extra support for individual fruits where needed. Expect your first ripened fruit out 80 days after transplant. A great choice for sandwiches and so much more! If you love them huge with good flavor, this one's for you! -
White Icicle Radish White Icicle Radish is a favorite of mine. I am not a big radish lover but I can definitely deal with this one. These are crisp and can grow to 5-6 inches long. These have a slightly spicy flavor. Easy to start by direct sowing in early spring after frost has passed and again in late summer for beautiful Fall crop. Early maturity at 30-50 days. -
White Sugar Tomato
A sweeter and juicy variety, White Sugar tomato is a pure gem to grow. Although I would consider this a slicing tomato, I think it would shine as a juice and cooking variety. These are really good right off the vine. Ripening to a pale yellow color, 4-8 ounce fruits have a wonderful aroma when fully done. Very beautiful for plating too! Wonderful market variety! Plants are prolific and around mid season. 80 days! -
Work Release Paste Tomato
Work Release Paste Tomato is an outstanding sauce and paste variety. Prolific, indeterminate plants produce 8-16 ounce, pink oxhearts that are pretty and clean. I like that they are relatively early, beginning to do so around 78 days from transplant. If you are a market vendor you would love these! These are meaty, mildly sweet, have really good tomato flavor and nonstop! Bushy plants have good disease resistance too! Great choice for canning, sauce, paste and ketchup. I happen to think it's a great all purpose variety, which includes sandwiches! Try these! -
