FYI ~ This list is updated frequently as varieties are exhausted and new seeds added to the list.



WinterSown.Org asks for your understanding.



The list changes frequently; similar substitutions will be made when a default choice is exhausted.



The list is comprised of commercial seed stock, seed stock saved by WinterSown, seed shared by tomato growers and breeders, and seed saved and shared by home-gardeners. We love to grow tomatoes from seed, we hope you will too.



These seeds are offered with the expectation of success to all; seeds are natural and people are human, WinterSown.Org is not responsible for crossed varieties or unintentional wrongly-named varieties.



WinterSown.Org reserves the right to refuse multiple requests from the same individual and/or mailing address. Expect your SASE to return home in about three weeks. Your Choice Tomato SASE ~ 6 packs. All seeds are shared by WinterSown.Org.



All requests must be accompanied with a printout of the dated address page which includes the seed selection form. Fill in your six first choices and four default choices on the form.

Please email for help if you cannot print the form. Mail the dated printout and filled in form with a two-stamp SASE ~ a # ten (long) envelope with two first class stamps attached to the SASE envelope. Do not use metered postage, use two current first-class stamps. Please do NOT send a bubble-mailer, send a #10 (long) envelope. If you would like us to select tomatoes for you please leave the selection form empty and we will choose for you. You must still include the printout of the dated address page or the offer is invalid This and all WinterSown seed offers are available only to US mailing addresses. Welcome to WinterSown's Your Choice Tomato SASE Page.

Growing Open-Pollinated (OP) tomatoes from seed is both a delicious and productive hobby. WinterSown.Org offers this list of seeds to help make it easier for anyone to begin growing tomatoes at home. These small-count seed packs provide enough seeds for someone to grow their own OP tomato sampler garden at home. Please review these abbreviations before reading the list: IND means Indeterminate. The tomato plant will lengthen its stems throughout the entire growing season. It will continue to flower and fruit until stopped by frost.



DET means Determinate. The stems are much shorter, they reach their length and set most of their fruits in a relatively short period of time. DETs are a good choice if you are canning your tomatoes or making batches of sauce for your freezer--you have the bulk of fruits to work with in the kitchen.



DTM means Days to Maturity. DTM is the number of days to the first expected ripe fruit from the time a transplant is planted into the garden. Click here for the tomato form and address page.
