(80-90 Days)
Mamie Brown’s Tomato is a delicious heirloom tomato with an old time tomato taste! This variety was donated to Seed Savers Exchange in 1995 by Alicia Brown-Matthes of Iowa. It was her grandmother Mamie Brown’s favorite variety that she grew in her West Virginia garden. These beefsteaks are large, pink, and vary in shape, ranging from oxheart to oblate. They are have a delicious and well-balanced flavor, with just the right combination of acid and sweetness. These tomatoes are reminiscent of tomatoes from years passed in the best possible way!

Planting Instructions – Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost date. Do not Plant out until 2 weeks after last frost. Tomato seeds require high soil temperatures for good germination rates. We highly recommend heat mats to ensure and speed up germination. Pot up to 3–4 inch pots when first true leaves develop (not cotyledon leaves). Harden off plants for 1-2 weeks in full sun before transplanting them outside (after last frost). Make sure to give tomato plants a lot of space for vigorous root and foliage growth.
