AnnualIndeterminate (25 seeds) - Named for the old timey country singer, this tomato is as classic as they come. Plants will produce pounds of 6-8 oz. tomatoes perfect for slicing. A good balance of sweetness and acidity make for a truly classic tomato flavor. Seeds are small and fruits ripen uniformly. A first choice for many market gardeners and chefs. Makes wonderful ketchup, spaghetti sauce, tomato soup, and is great eaten raw on sandwiches, burgers, or right off the vine.
The packet and seeds looks healthy; however, they won't be planted until February.
So far, so good! Seeds are sprouting and there were plenty in each packet. Plus, such variety. Thank you!
Boxcar Willie Tomato
All of the seeds I started germinated. That is why I keep coming back to buy more seeds from you guys. Thank you!
I'm not 100% sure that the tomato seeds we grew from the seed packet were Boxcar Willies, they started green, turned yellow, then turned orange, and if left on the vine for a long time they would turn red, BUT they were delicious! We enjoyed harvesting them when they turned orange, the flavor was subtly fruity, only slightly acidic, and delightfully mild. At this point in my life, I think I can safely say it's the best tasting tomato I've ever tasted. So, I'm not 100% sure that what we grew was actually a Boxcar Willie or not, but we loved it, saved seeds, and will be growing it again next year!

The taste of this tomato is super sweet. I made pico de gallo and it was a treat. I got a one pound tomato in my grow bag.
I got a good variety of seeds. I can’t wait to plant them next spring.
I wasn’t expecting that much garlic. My box was full of soft neck and hard neck.
They are doing beautifully. I can't wait for the spring!
As a homeschooling project, my seven year old grew this cauliflower, which is his favorite vegetable. He entered it into the county fair and won a first place prize. Easy to grow, and kept covered with a mesh fabric. Purchased the same seeds again, this time trying winter sowing in a raised garden bed with 6ml plastic hooped over top. Starting to head out again even if the outdoor temps are 30-40 during the day and 30-20 at night
