I read awhile back that a tomato was being reintroduced
into the US from Europe. Apparently it was once in the US
but seemed to go out of favor with gardeners. This year
600,000 seeds were to be imported. Does anyone know the
name of this tomato?

it was originally from NJ... let's see, Ramapo.
here's an article about it:http://www.lancasterfarming.com/node/1092

Last night while sitting in my chair
I pinged a host that wasn't there
It wasn't there again today
The host resolved to NSA.



My Dad was an Agronomist at Rutgers when this was introduced. I sure
wish I could get ahold of some of those seeds. It was a great
'mater!!! Bernie Polluck lived right up the street from us.

Try this search,

It should lead you to some places that have the seeds.
