Tigges Farm variety of tomatoes results in a medium size tomato. This variety "canners" love as the whole tomato can be used. There is not big hard core to cut out. Plus, the bonus is "amazing flavor" for everyday salads or a slice to add to a sandwich. We know how hard it is to "wait" for them to ripen, so don't get anxious early.
