Grew these heirloom black cherry tomatoes for the first time this year and they’re tiny little taste bombs. I’m growing these again next year.

Love the black cherry tomato variety for its prolific and flavorful taste. It sent up multiple vines that I had to trellis but so excited for additional growth as it’s become a favourite variety in my garden.
