Red Beefsteak
The traditional tomato — big, red and meaty. Perfect for chopping up in salsas or slicing for BLTs or burgers.
Cherry
Sweet and juicy, these little tomatoes are a crowd favorite. Great in salads, sauces and on skewers for grilling, cherry tomatoes are also perfect for bruschetta or atop pizza.
Roma
Full of flavor and few seeds, this type of plum tomato is perfect for sauces, stews, pastes and canning. Great for slicing for sandwiches or for roasting to make pesto or soups.
Green Tomatoes
Some tomato varieties, such as heirloom green zebra and Cherokee green, are just green. But the color also describes unripened tomatoes that are purposely harvested early for breading, frying or pickling. Try classic fried green tomatoes or use them in chili verde sauces.
Brandywine
These heirloom tomatoes are large, meaty, pink-hued and considered to be among the best-tasting tomatoes out there. Great for slicing, canning and overall use in cooking.
