I give them to neighbors, fishing friends and drop off a some at the ESQ Angler for a morning snack for the guys who are monitoring the boat launches.
There is nothing like sun dipper tomatoes and I have more than we could every eat.

A big ol bear came to visit the wine grapes last night so it was time to pick them. This is about half of them. Still got to get the rest plucked off their stems.

Bear decided to exit through the chain link fence. Not over, just through it haha. Too big to get over

My wife made a pasta sauce tonight with some of the bigger variety tomaters . So good . Hard not to eat the small ones like candy

Those Sun Dipper tomatoes are making it on next years grow list. What's another must have tomato larger variety to grow?

No fishing today so plant clean up and tomato picking of Sun Dipper tomatoes.

How sweet are those compared to the sweeter cherry tomato varietals??

They are the best small tomatoes going. low in acid, small seeds, meaty, and the skins never tough. Way better than cherry tomatoes.
Who ever I give them to, they love them and call them candy. I always bring some to the ESQ shack for the guys and they are all gone in minutes.

When the winter storms blow mounds of seaweed onto the shore, we haul as much as my back can handle onto the garden and let it sit through the rains, then till it in in the spring. Not a hack I guess, but we have a remarkably good producing garden on what I'd consider sketchy soil, and none of the usual bugs and molds etc that seem to hit alot of gardeners.

Where can a guy get some seeds?

OK, you have me somewhat convinced.
I will try a plant or two for next season.

Cheers & Thanks!
