I'm your huckleberry!!! I'm definitely looking for some tomato varieties.

I'll also add I'm insanely jealous. ;)

I'll update my want list on the thread, but I definitely want Thornburg's Terrocatta, Red Centiflor, Soldaki, Wapsipinicon Peach, Typhon (Tiffen?) Mennonite, Sheboygan, Champagne Bubbles, Wherokowhai, Big Zac, & Giant Crimson for starters. ;)

It only took me 7 minutes to figure out how to reply. I'm a new user here on the site but plan to be very active in trades because this is an enormous passion of mine. I'm interested in Tomato varieties I dont have but struggling to figure out how to contact you directly. SMH. Please be on the look out for a private message if thats even possible.

I will definitely take you up on that offer too! I love tomatoes ❤ Also, curious if you'll have a list? I'm always on the look out for Dwarf varieties.

I would love to see that list!!! That is so crazy and awesome!

CONGRATS! Sounds like alot of fun--- and work :D
But you know how we gardeners love to grow...AND save seeds :D
Cant wait to see your list (if you're putting it out!) I'm with Steve and would love some Wapsipinicon Peach if you have any.

Steve, I just tried the Wapsipinicon Peach and was enticed. Nice little yellow tomato with peach fuzz..I was entranced. A new gardener friend gave me a selection of her tomatos to try, it's fun having someone who's interesting in trying new things/tomatoes. My tomatoes are behind this year. It's been a weird year for growing (and trying to keep things watered in drought conditions)

Since I seem to be on a quest to grow every variety of tomato there is, I'm always up for swapping. Hope you list a few in the swap.

I keep saying for why my tomatoes aren't doing great.... "Cause 2020"

I'm just speechless. And a little jealous. But mostly just speechless.

YES!!!

What wonderful news!!! Congratulations on such an honor! You deserve it, though!

I don't love fresh tomatoes, but every year I keep telling myself it is going to be the year that I plant tomatoes and I will start making fresh salsa and other tomato-based products (which, ironically, I love). I tried several tomato varieties this year and...well....like another member said: it's 2020. Apparently, this is the year everything goes wrong. No tomatoes for me this year, so I look forward to trying with some new seeds next year.

Good luck with this beautiful and important responsibility that has been bestowed on you!

Congratulations!!! Soynds like you're going to be a bz bee!

I'm trying to get some Black Krim, Black Beauty and Black ??? Tomato seeds. Not rare, just evasive with my traders.

Best wishes to you!
Terri

I'll be posting both Black Beauty and Black Krim this year. I'm still processing the seeds, but I definitely will be offering them.

I'd love to see your list also please I'm looking for Garden Peach. I really loved it & miss growing it. I'm looking for a few others too.

ok to everyone who responded and asked questions.
The list is up on Seedsavers.org, you have to sign up, and then every time you go into the site you have to sign in. Once you sign in you can go to exchange at the tip and then to vegetabels, down to tomatoes. At the left side of that screen you will go all the way down to where it says listers, and put a check by my name, that will bring up my list on there. Each packet of seeds is $2, even if it says $3, the system would not let me change some. You will get about 20 seeds per order. You can send me a message on gmail, [email protected] and I will respond to all of them.
Thank you
Kim Lund

Thanks for letting us know!

What's the likelihood they'll be there after the swap? I am hoping to get most of what I want/need from the swap first.
