I bought these tomato seeds from Territorial Seeds this year, couldn't find a
Canadian source and I had to have them.  My kids think they look
unappetizing, but I think they look awesome!  Like 'black' tomatoes on

Thanks Muffy for the info on area orchards. I may start visiting them later
in the spring. Seems like spring here already. Only 9 inches of snow
total, it's 52F right now and snow is almost melted. What isn't, is a yucky
gray, black muck! I bet we get hit in early March with a blizzard. It's
been that kind of a year!
