Today I ate the last tomato from my garden. I would be interested in purchasing 5 to 10lbs of blushing tomatoes. I have mailed tomatoes to relatives via USPS and it is relatively simple. I will pay via pay pal and will pay for the tomatoes, the shipping and the box and packing.
Please send me a PM if you are interested and let me know what you are growing Thanks |

Interesting. I don't even have that much blushing, but just curious, how do you pack and ship?

You will need shipping tape, paper or bubble wrap and the post office has a medium or large size box (no cost for the box) The delivery time is 3 days and the shipping rate is fixed based on the size of the box. The cost is $15 to $20. I have shipped around five times with no problems. The post office will ask about the contents and I tell them it is tomatoes and they are fine with that. |

Are you looking for organic tomatoes, or just conventional?

Maybe an exchange program can be started next season. This year I will gladly buy good tomatoes. |
