Ernie's Round and Plump

ronbrew · February 17, 2008

Does anyone know of a seed company that sells these seeds. I've been able to buy the plants locally, but it's only on one day and I sometimes miss it. Every year people seem to like these tomatoes especially the round which is slightly larger. They always get 8-10 scores. I'm not even sure who the source is of this tomato. Anyway I've seen it for at least 4 years and never have come across any seeds.
Thanks,
Ron

I offer both these varieties through Seed Savers Exchange. See the 2008 SSE Yearbook (when it gets distributed).

You can find Ernie's Plump and Ernie's Pointed in the culinary section at www.mariseeds.com and you can find Ernie's Round in the specials section at the same site.

Thanks for the help folks! I wish I knew mariseeds had this because I had just ordered from them the day I posted. I didn't see it when I was on the site.

By the way how do you get a seed saver yearbook? There is so much posted on this and I have no idea what it is, where you get it, and how it's beneficial.

Join Seed Savers, pay the fee, it is included in the membership. www.seedsavers.org, I think is the website.

If you join now, you may have to request the 2008 yearbook, I am thinking, because they just sent it out. We got ours a few days ago.
