OVERVIEW: Can tomatoes be unsung heroes? We think so!
Pete Zuck, Product Manager and Daniel Yoder, Trial Technician highlight 10 lesser-known varieties. While they may not enjoy the popularity of many other tomatoes in our lineup, they consistently show outstanding performance on many fronts in our trials — a level of performance that has earned them a following not only with us but among a devoted group of growers as well.
Join Pete and Daniel as they delve into why these tomatoes deserve a closer look.
A Q&A session follows the presentation, with a lively give-and-take in which Pete and Daniel respond to atttendees' questions.
