I'm looking for some recommendations for good heirloom seed
companies/catalogues. What are the ones you've been satisfied with in
terms of lots of varieties, service, etc.?

Also, favorite heirloom tomato varieties?

My favorite heirloom toms:

Stupice Czech heirloom, small very early, very tasty. In my experience
two weeks earlier than Early Girl.

Pruden's Purple Reliable. Compared to Brandwine but earlier and more
productive

Caspian Pink Just a good big tom

San Marzano Redorta Tuscan heirloom. The best paste tom I've tried. Large
and tasty. From Tomato Growers Supply.

Brandywine is my favorite.

You may like an old fashioned acidic tasting
cherry type like "Farmers Delight" which
will self-seed easily.

There is also a popular (around here anyway) German
heriloom yellow-pink mixed variety called "Mr.Stripey".
(doesn't can very well).
