Randy Gardner’s local creation, meeting the late local farmer, Randy Dodson. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRandy Dodson of Water’s farm grew these tomatoes for several decades, mastering this determinate bush tomato, bringing early red tomatoes to market, faster in the field than a greenhouse. I acquired his last remaining \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"il\"\u003eseed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e stock of this variety soon after his death.
