Need input from Kellogg's Breakfast lovers !

JohnWayne · October 10, 2012

OK, short and to the point. I loved the few Kellogg's breakfast tomatoes I got from my garden this year.

But I have a few questions. I don't want to put all my eggs in one basket and next year I will have help. (I'll explain that in a bit) So while my main crop will be Kellogg's next year, it is my hope that some of you who also love Kellogg's will tell me what other heirloom tomatoes you grow and love as well. (with flavor something like the Kellogg's)

I need to know what they are, how well they produce, how long they keep and how well they ship. I need to know this about the Kellogg's as well as the others you recommend being that I only got 4 tomatoes from over 100 plants I only know I love the flavor.

OK, part two. After much questioning I was directed to a farmer to buy canning tomatoes. I have bought about 500 lbs and they are very good ! THe first good tomatoes I have bought in years. Now I have lots canned and juiced.

But talking to this farmer, I asked if he would grow some Kellogg's plants next year and he said he had never heard of them but if I would bring him 30 or 40 plants so he could try some, the bulk of the crop would be mine.

After talking over the last month and a half we are agreed that it may be better to plant more and he have plenty to sell. And that trying more than one variety is in the best interest for all involved.
And so, I ask for the above information. Thanks in advance for any help you care to offer !
