I can't vouch for the germination % as this is the first year I have ordered from them and I haven't planted yet but; tomatofest.com out of Little River,Ca. has a great selection. Their service was GREAT as were their prices plus they sent some free seeds. Check 'em out. Oh, and they are certified organic!

There are many places to purchase Heirloom tomatoes now. Two companies that I really like are Seed Savers Exchange and Baker Creek Heirloom seeds. Both have a good selection of other heirloom seeds as well. I've been trialing heirloom tomato varieties for several years now. Todd County Amish and Amish Potato Leaf were two varieties, collected by me, from a local Amish woman. Tomatoville is a great website for tomato lovers. You may want to check it out. I should warn you, like giant pumpkin growing, heirloom tomato growing can become addictive!

I actually did ask for seeds in the seed exchange board. No response as of yet. I'm not really picky as to which ones. Just looking for some good variety and colors, and some sweet cherry types to grow for my son, he loves those. If anyone is willing to share/trade email me and I'll send a bubble...dewton232 at yahoo.com

The great thing about tomato seeds is place them in a card and they arrive just fine. I have Cherokee Purple and some giants. My problem with Giants is I like to eat tomatoes

I will add my voice to those that say Baker Creek Heirloom seeds is a great place to order from. They have an amazing selection and their shipping was extremely fast.
