I wish I could be more helpful.

The Dwarf Tomato project is a Victory Seed Co. effort.  They pioneered large tomatoes on determinate-sized plants.  I wonder if any tomato growers propagate them.  The variety I seek is the Summer Sweet Gold, fantastic taste.

Thanks for your help.  I, too, am/have been a MG.  Trained at the UMN in the early '80s.

The seeds are available from small suppliers and seed exchanges.

I see you are in Ramsey County, Brianna Goede might be a good person to ask. She does a lot with heirloom seeds.
