Jersey Breeze Tomato?
I’m looking for information on the origins of Jersey Breeze tomato. Is it an heirloom? Bred by ??
Last year I got seeds from Hudson Valley Seed Co.(Accord,NY), and it looks like it was previously available from Sundial Seed Co. (Willits, ÇA, which appeared to be in business only 2019-21). I sent an email to HV and it wasn’t answered.
The tomato is a medium red that was fairly productive all summer, in a bed where old reliables such as Pruden’s Purple and Polaris were not. Looked exactly like Bush Early Girl.
I’m thinking of offering it at our master gardener seedling sale for those who are looking for a basic red OP indeterminate tomato, but I like to include some information on history/provenance for the varieties we sell.
