Default In search of a Wes tomato plant

I'm looking for a Wes tomato plant... Any thoughts as to where I could find one? I'm in NE Iowa.

I have seeds if you want to grow your own next season. Just pm me about it.

As Marsha said,she has seeds for it,so do many of us I'm sure,including me,but let's hope that someone from your area comes along and helps.

I've been to Des Moines,it's a large city, perhaps if you ask around you could find plants at a local nursery or being sold at a farmer'smarket. You wouldn't find it at a big box store,I don't think,unless they were subcontracting to local growers, which some do.

Sojust ask around about Farmer's markets, at local nurseries, and see what you can find out.

Carolyn, who would refer you to Dar Jones (Fusion here at Tville) Selected Plants site,he's in Alabama and sells plants, but right now I don 't know what he might have left,and to order just one plant to ship,doesn't seem the best thing to do.

I will do that, my wife was at the Farmers Market in Des Moines yesterday, when she gets home I'll see what she may have found. I'm at home planting corn and beans in the fields!
