We have selected 28 of our favorite heirloom tomatoes, 4 eggplant varieties and 4 pepper varieties. Tomatoes:
Cherry Tomatoes: Sungold, Brown Berry, Peacevine Cherry, Green Grape, Dr. Carolyn's and a variety passed down to me from a mentor farmer near Tallahassee called Herman's Little Yellow.
Small/Medium Fruit: Amish Gold, Amish Red, Ace 55, Green Zebra, Garden Peach, Earl of Edgecomb, Black Prince, Black Ethiopian, Chocolate Stripes, Orange Russian and a variety called Lime Green Salad that is perfect for growing in pots since the plants are miniature, but still produce abundantly.
