On any productive homestead, every member needs to pull its weight, and the Homestead Tomato out-tomatoes every tomato. Sun up to sun down, in high heat and humidity, this workhorse churns out large, red, smooth, sturdy, meaty, juicy slicers. As comfortable in the overalls of a sandwich as it is done up in its Sunday best for the canner. Just a good ol’ heirloom with good old-fashioned tomato flavor.

  • Meaty and juicy
  • Good for Southern gardens

Homestead Tomatoes
After a long wait of four months after sprouting, I took my first bite in to one of the first red tomatoes, I was shocked at how dull the flavor was.
