My description of Buffalo Soldier Tomato would be that it’s a very good representation of what a black tomato should taste like. 6-14 ounce fruits grow on 5 foot or taller vines that has shown good disease resistance in our gardens. Clusters of 3-5 begin to ripen about 80 days after transplant and continue until frost. As far as taste, these are sweetish, earthy, juicy with good texture. Its fast is no overwhelming it’s just right. I like these especially eaten fresh and on sandwiches. Based on it’s exterior feel and good taste, I also suspect that it will be good market variety also, but I didn’t take any to my market. Definitely one to consider!

Mary Ann Low –
My original seeds came from a vendor who retired due to COVID restrictions in her state and I am pleased that Curtis is offering these. I ordered these purely for the name, as the history of the Buffalo Soldiers is a fascinating one. These tomatoes ended up being excellent flavorwise, and the plants were very resilient. Note: I try to buy from vendors I have purchased from before, but sometimes people retire, disappear, or decide to not keep up their seed businesses.
