I am excited to try these snow peas! They are said to get eight feet tall, and the pods are sweet and tender up to 7 inches. They are from Adaptive Seeds.

Mmmmmm! These are to die for. I need to grow at least three plants of these for them to make it into the house. During peak harvest, it is inevitable to get a canker sore from eating so many of these delectable fruits.

This was the first ox heart tomato I grew. It was the most gorgeous tomato I have ever seen. The flavor was fruity and very mild. It reminded me of a peach in a way.

I was surprised to see this pepper do so well in a 12 inch container. My plant was loaded with peppers in a cool summer. The plants I grew were from seeds I saved. This could have added to the success. I saved seeds again. I am excited to see the next generation next year.

I got these seeds from the Whitinger Seed company last year after hearing from @dave and @trish that they were hands down the best for dessert. I would definitely agree!

I only got two fruits per plant, but they were planted amongst a very crowded hugel bed.

I am growing these for the first time this year. They started producing around August 11. I only get about three at a time. Next year I will save space for at least three of these plants. I agree with @dave. It is good to have a small tomato that is similar to Cherokee Purple. I have not had any of them crack, probably because I pick them every day.

This pepper is one of the sweetest I have tasted. It is very prolific, which is good because they are very thin. They are great for snacking. The skin is not as crisp as others.

I like this tomato because it is fast, and good size for how fast it is. It is a beautiful tomato and has a nice balanced flavor with just enough uniqueness to match its shape.

This tomato is very solid and meaty. It has very few seeds and would be great for sauce. It is also nice on a sandwich. It is not as productive as I would like and takes a while. I will grow these again. It is a quality tomato. It makes up for productivity in its weight.

This tomato has a unique flavor, not to mention shape! Tomato Growers compared it to a "fine burgundy." I say it is very acidic and a bit earthy with a mix of salt.
They say Thomas Jefferson grew it.

I grew this in zone 4b, and it didn't have a long enough season. I started it indoors June 1, and planted it out June 16. It ended up looking like a normal butternut squash. The taste was the same too. Next year I will start it indoors May 1. I will plant it in my compost bin.

Very fruity. I grew this plant in the dry part of my rain garden, in a mix of black dirt and sand. Very vigorous plants!
