Tomato Plants
Our tomato plants are locally grown from non-GMO seed and carefully tended from germination to transplant size right here on our farm. Each plant is started in rich potting mix, grown under attentive care, and hardened off naturally so it’s ready to thrive in your Illinois garden. We’re offering several varieties selected for flavor, reliability, and strong performance in our climate; from classic slicing tomatoes to rich, sweet heirlooms and productive cherry types. These are the same quality starts we grow for our own fields, giving you a healthy, vigorous plant that’s ready to take off once it hits the soil.
Beefsteak - classic, big-slice garden favorite. These plants produce large, meaty fruits with rich tomato flavor and minimal seeds — perfect for thick sandwich slices, burgers, and fresh summer plates. Known for their impressive size and satisfying texture, beefsteak varieties thrive in full sun and reward gardeners with heavy harvests through peak summer. If you’re looking for that iconic, juicy red tomato that tastes like summer should, this is it.
Brandywine Red - classic heirloom tomato known for its exceptional flavor and old-fashioned character. These plants produce large, deep red fruits with a rich, full-bodied taste that’s sweet, slightly tangy, and incredibly juicy. With their tender texture and complex flavor, Brandywines are prized for fresh slicing and showcasing on summer plates. This is a slower-maturing variety compared to hybrids, but gardeners agree the flavor payoff is well worth the wait. If you’re planting for taste above all else, Brandywine Red delivers.
Cherokee Purple - heirloom variety known for its deep dusky color and rich, complex flavor. The fruits mature to a unique purple-red with green shoulders and deliver a bold, sweet, slightly smoky taste that tomato lovers rave about. These large slicing tomatoes are juicy and full-bodied, making them perfect for fresh eating, caprese salads, and thick summer sandwiches. Productive and reliable in warm weather, Cherokee Purple is a standout choice for gardeners who want something visually striking and exceptionally flavorful.
Mountain Fresh Plus - dependable, high-performing tomato variety known for its strong disease resistance and consistent yields. These plants produce large, smooth, bright red fruits with firm texture and classic, well-balanced tomato flavor. Developed for reliability in a range of growing conditions, Mountain Fresh Plus handles heat and common garden diseases better than many heirlooms, making it a great choice for gardeners who want steady production and sturdy plants. If you’re looking for a no-drama slicer that delivers this variety is a proven performer.
Supersweet 100 - prolific cherry tomato variety known for its incredible sweetness and heavy yields. These vigorous plants produce long clusters of bright red, bite-sized tomatoes that are bursting with juicy, sugary flavor. Perfect for snacking straight off the vine, tossing into salads, or roasting whole, Super Sweet 100 keeps producing all season long with proper care. If you want a reliable, high-energy plant that delivers handful after handful of sweet summer tomatoes, this one is a garden favorite for good reason.
