Does anyone have a reliable source for Big Cheef seeds? Thanks!

Never grown Big Cheef but Carolina Dusk is an excellent tomato.

Big Cheef x (Pruden’s Purple x Indian Stripe)

I picked two 3 days ago and will probably have some more, so it is a long lasting healthy plant. Taste is typical of a dark tomato. Didn't have another similar Black tomato to compare. Only other Black I had was Pale Perfect Purple which is also excellent but not the same type

A few of the smaller seed companies like Michigan Heirloom and Renaissance Farms carry it when seeds are in stock. I probably have some elderly seeds, but I don't bag blossoms, so can't guarantee purity. If you can't find a better source and would like to try mine, PM me.

I just ate the last of my Carolina Dusk tomatoes. Great flavor!
