This is my all time favorite episode! Watching it again today made me remember something my father told me many years ago….My grandfathers favorite tomato was Bonny Best. I’m 71 years old and this is a great feeling. I’m ordering a pack of seeds from Baker Creek right now. Thank-you
Your comment really makes me feel so happy to be able to produce these stories that invoke such good memories. Thanks for letting me know. 👍. I bet getting your first taste of your grandfathers favorite tomato is going to be amazing. Enjoy!!
What a wonderful video.
Thank you very much!
Really good show. I meet Craig at a Tomatopalooza event. So many tomatoes, so little time. Cherokee Purple is my favorite. Thank you Craig.
Craig is one of a kind. He’s so good and a real asset to tomato growers everywhere. 👍
I’d love to see Craig’s favorite tomato seed saving method. I’ve seen a ton of variations and clearly whatever he does is working really well!
Great suggestion! Have you been to his website to see if he already has a video on that? Nctomatoman.com
Craig’s methods are incredible. I’ve learn so much since seeing him on Tomato Talk Live. ❤
Totally agree!
I love tomatoes just started growing them from organic Tomatoes bought in the grocery store. Not much variety though need to buy some seeds from a good source can you recommend someone or does Craig sell seeds
You definitely need to start seeds from some good companies. Totally Tomatoes, Johnnys, Territorial Seed are great options to get you started. Good luck!
Thanks
