There is also a US Postal Service stamp honoring him. I got one on an
envelope that had tomato seeds in it. (Go figure!)

The seeds are available commercially from Southern Exposure Seed Exchange,
http://www.southernexposure.com/productlist/prods/49161.html; Peaceful
Valley Farm Supply,
http://www.groworganic.com/a/item_SNV322_TomatoFestPaulRobesonTomato.html;
and Tomato Fest http://www.tomatofest.com/home.html. There may be others,
just did a quick Google for Paul Robeson Tomato.
