Cherry Tomatoes

The first taste of summer in bite sized treats. Packed full of flavor and sweetness which can't be found in your grocery store bought tomatoes. (link to greek salad)


Flavor & Preparation

Our cherry tomatoes are the perfect miniature heirloom varieties, with just as much flavor (honestly sometimes more!) as their big brothers. They can be sliced and used in all the same recipes as heirlooms tomatoes, but are also an easy addition to pizzas, salads, and crudites platter.

Each variety has a slightly different flavor, with dark red/brown tomatoes yielding a beefy flavor and texture, while yellow and orange alternatives are sweeter. In practice, they are interchangeable in recipes, but take time to taste each—you may find a favorite variety!

Health Benefits

  • Tomatoes serve up a healthy quantity of lycopene, an antioxidant that promotes heart health and reduced the risk of cancer.

  • Excellent source of Vitamin C, potassium, and folate.
