SW PA Heirlooms?
 
Anyone know of anywhere in the SW area of PA (Nearer the Laurels the better)
that is selling Heirloom Tomato plants? I'm looking for Ugly and Brandywine
Pinks (or some other extra sweet large pink). Anywhere else that ships
plants?

Thanks.

The farmer's market in E. Liberty. Not really near the Laurels though.

Thanks for the reply... I missed it on my other account, but see it today.

It's tough to get into the city, time-wise, right now... I'll give that a
shot if I need to, though.



Thanks again!

You should contact Doug Oster at the Post-Gazette. He writes a garden
column, and gives away heirloom seeds, and tomato plants. I think he will be
giving some away in North Park on June 4 or 5, but if you check the PG
archives there should be something in there about it. I got some seeds from
him last year, and great some really large heirloom tomatos. He receieved
the seeds from someone in, I think, Moon Township.

Thanks. I probably should contact him to see if he knows some more places
with heirloom plants. I've followed the saga of the seeds and may try them
one year... but right now I really was hoping to find these two plants.
There are a number of places around that have heirlooms, but not these two.

I'm considering trying Belgium Pinks instead of the Brandywine Pinks...
anyone tried them????
