Glacier Tomato
Early Harvest, Cool-Weather Champion!
The Glacier Tomato is a cold-tolerant, early-producing heirloom that thrives in shorter seasons and cooler climates, making it perfect for northern gardens or early planting. These small to medium-sized, round red tomatoes offer a balanced, tangy-sweet flavor that's great for fresh eating, slicing, or salads. With its determinate, compact growth habit, Glacier is ideal for containers, raised beds, or tight garden spaces, and starts producing fruit just 55 days from transplant. If you’re looking for a fast, flavorful, and reliable tomato, Glacier is a cool-season favorite.
