I am very happy with their customer service! My order arrived quickly, and packed to perfection. Now that the planting season is upon us, I will see how my many different varieties turn out! I will let you know how things grow

My Tomatoes are all up and doing great! I love the different varieties that I found with them! (4-06-07) one more week and they will find their home in my garden. I love California weather!
Nothing really to add to other positive comments. Latest order arrived well packed. My order was placed at 7:30PM on January 22, 2007 and it arrived at noon on January 24 - Not too bad!

I placed a seed order before Christmas and received my package today. The seeds were well packaged and they sent a free pack of Marianna's Peace tomato. They also included 2 separate sheets of helpful instructions on seeds starting. The website was easy to use. I will order here again. Will update with germination results.

All my seeds germinated and the plants have all done wonderfully. I have already ordered a lot of my 2008 seeds here.

Just ordered 32 different seed packs from TGS. Received ALL of them in only 4 days. I was really surprised. I didn't expect to get them that fast, nor did I expect to get all 32 varieties on the first try.

The Tomato Growers company rep was very helpful and I received my order in a timely manner. I had excellent germination and will be making a point of ordering from this company again.
I have ordered from this company for over three years and have been extremely satisfied. I order in January and the seeds arrive just days later. Two years ago I placed an internet order and two days later placed a telephone order. The phone order appeared before the internet order - I called and they had no record of it. Seems something happened in cyberspace. I re-ordered, and again, the seeds arrived in a matter of a couple of days. Never had any problems with germination. It's the first and about the only place I'll go for tomato seeds. Every year I grow 200+ plants and usually mostly heirlooms.

I ordered seven varieties of heirloom tomatoes and some miscellaneous peppers and tomatillos online from TG this year. I was surprised when the seeds didn't show up for two weeks, so I called the company. A very nice representative (didn't get the name, unfortunately) checked my order and it turned out that it had been sent to an old address of mine--apparently I'd ordered a packet from them a few years ago at another residence and that address was still in their computer. A new shipment of seeds was sent and I received them in 3 days--plus a bonus pack of tomato seeds. I'm not sure why the first order was sent to my old address, but they fixed the problem immediately and happily. :) Can't wait to see how the tomatoes turn out this year! :)

This is my 2nd year ordering from TGS. I ordered via their website on 1/24 and received my complete order plus free tomato seeds on 1/30. I like their resealable packets. Last year's germination rate was quite good and I expect the same this year.

I first ordered from Tomatoe growers last year and I had a very good germination rate and good tomatoe plants. I have already ordered for this year and I'm looking forward to getting those seeds in the ground

This year I ordered both tomato and pepper seeds from Tomato Growers Supply Co. The seeds arrived very quickly (roughly one week after my online order) and were very well packaged. Each seed packet came with a very detailed description on it too.
They offer a huge variety of seeds and their website has excellent photos of each one. This is a great source of seeds for the heirloom tomato grower, but they do offer quite a few hybrids too.
I would hightly recommend this company and will definitely be placing another order with them next year.

Great company! Ordered seeds on Thursday, received them on Monday, and I live in California, while they're based in Florida! Very informative & a great selection of the unsual as well as common varieties. Great peppers in asddition to tomatoes.

I have been dealing with this company since their beginning.
Awesome catalog! Excellent variety, good prices, and very fast shiping.
One of the best for tomato and pepper seeds. I'm a total pepperhead and a tomato lover as well, if I were to stop gardening (heaven forbid!) I think I would still order their catalog just to read and reread!

I ordered from this company because of a recommendation made by a tomato expert on the Dave's Garden Tomato Forum. I ordered several varieties and had very good germination rates. The selection is impressive. Their seed packages are very detailed concerning that particular variety. Prices were reasonable.
I also ordered two books. When the package came it was already opened and one of the books was missing. I called the company and they sent me another book. It wasn't my fault or theirs, but they sent another book. I appreciate that very much and have ordered from them again.

TGS is still a great company. Service is quick and seeds germinate very well. Some companies don't put information on the seed packets about that particular tomato--not so with TGS. It helps so much to not have to go back to the catalog to get information.

I've ordered from Tomato Growers Supply for a couple years and have always been very happy with their seed selections. They ship very quickly, and I've had great germination from their seeds. I will continue to order from this company in the future.
Great selection, good prices, fast shipping, and quality seeds. If you are looking for many varieties of tomato, pepper or eggplant seeds, this is the place to go.

I love these guys! (Or gals, depending). One of my favorite parts of the year is going over catalogs and web sites choosing varieties to plant, and TGS is a real winner. Always prompt on fulfilling orders and backorders, great variety, and an informative website with plenty of pictures. I always have great luck with their seed as well and will probably continue to use them as my primary seed and pepper source.

Update for 2006: Still a great company to deal with. Love the catalog, the wide selection of varieties, fast shipping, great germination ... you can't go wrong with TGS and I look forward to using them in 2007 and beyond.
I have been purchasing from Tomato Growers for several years now. What keeps me coming back is: Fast Shipping, Excellent germination of seeds and the varieties of tomatoes and peppers offered.
Wonderful catalog, selection, customer service and super fast shipping. Most importantly the seeds are true to type and have a fabulous germination rate.You won't be dissapointed with their seeds.
I have used Tomato Growers Supply for the past five or six years. the selection is outstanding, the germination rate near 100%, the orders filled promptly. This is the first year that anything was ever backordered and that backorder arrived about a week after the main order.
For service, selection , and quality this place is just about impossible to beat.
Just found the Garden Watchdog site, and thought I would add my comments about Tomato Growers Supply (TGS) here. I am a small fresh-market grower, and have used TGS as my sole source of tomato and pepper (both sweet and hot) for the past two years.
Each time I have ordered, I have received my shipment in perfect condition, in a very timely fashion. The varieties have always been as advertised, and the germination rates near 100%. Top it off with their incredible selection of unusual, heirloom, and hard-to-find varieties, and TGS is truly a winner!
Great catalogue for different tomato varieties (with pictures). Almost 100% germination rate - too bad this crappy Ohio spring weather killed off about half of my first planting!
I have ordered tomato and pepper seeds from TGS for the past 2 years for both Virgnia & West Texas climates & have been very pleased with every aspect of dealing with them. The seeds perform well & the company staff are a delight to do business with. Highly recommend TGS.

I ordered from Tomato Growers on March 12th, I received my seeds within the week! It is April now and I have 80% germination. I have replanted the varieties that did not germinate. I am very pleased with the company and will order again.
Nice catalog, good prices, great inventory. Have ordered before and got what I ordered. Plants never survived my crazy patio garden, not their fault (100+ temps)
I'd rate them a 10 in a heartbeat without a doubt.
Great company, quick service with high quality product. The cataloge is a great reference source. This is the 3rd year I have used them and will call them next year.
Recently ordered from Tomato Grower's through the mail. I was very surprised at how quickly I recieved my order. Less than a week after they recieved it! Seeds very viable- so far, I have 100% germination. I am very happy with this company and will recommend them to every gardener I know!
