Lycopersicon esculentum
TOMATO-PEAR-RED plants put out high yields of perfect pear-shaped tomatoes, an heirloom that Americans have enjoyed since Colonial times & likely existed before 1800. Attractive and tasty, the 2.5 – 5 cm long fruits are delicious in salads or roasted in the oven. The fruit typically weighs about 5g. The uniform, crack resistant fruit is produced all summer & keep producing right up until frost on productive vines that need to be staked. Climber.
Sow in a good mix of soil and lightly cover, keep moist but not wet. Transplant when seedlings achieve 4 – 6 leaves.

More About Us
When I started this journey in 2009, I found nothing existed commercially, that was reasonably priced and easy to use. There was a homemade system which I also found was not that user-friendly.
Then a friend of mine told me about a homemade method she used. However, when I tried her method, I found this also didn’t suit my needs, as it too had flaws that I considered where important. It did not keep vermin out, did not have a lockable lid and (to me) looked unsightly in the garden
