I found them! 2022 "Dirty Girl" Tomatoes. The story is that a little family farm failed to clear out their patch of "Early Girl" tomatoes at the end of the season. The seedlings that volunteered the next year were selected by the elements, and seemed tougher than their hybrid parents. They continued to let them cross pollinate and regrow until they had a relatively uniform self-seeding, "de-hybridized" and even improved version of early girl that they have dubbed "Dirty Girl".
I ordered a little packet of "15 seeds" for $8 including the shipping. I didn't get to grow them last year due to my husband being in and out of the hospital 4 1/2 months out of 7 months. To my delight, I just found and opened the packet and there are 32 seeds. I'm adding 2 packs of 10 of these seeds to the swap today.
