Our green tomatoes are harvested when ordered from our slicing tomato plants – perfect for your favorite “fried green tomatoes” recipe! Green tomatoes offer a firm texture with a pleasantly tart tomato taste that becomes sweet when cooked.
PACKAGING – We sell tomatoes in 1-pound increments (e.g. 1 lb. = 1+ lb., 2 lbs.. = 2+ lbs., etc.). Green tomatoes typically weigh 5-14 oz ounces each and are harvested fresh when ordered.
STORING – The best way to store tomatoes is with no stems, sitting on a flat surface (e.g., large plate) stem side down, and at room temperature. Never store tomatoes in a refrigerator and keep them out of direct sunlight. A good way to speed-ripen tomatoes is by putting them in a bag with bananas.
NUTRITION – Tomatoes are an excellent source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, potassium, and lycopene (known for its antioxidant properties). Tomatoes are also low in calories and high in fiber, making them a healthy addition to any diet.
HOW WE GROW – AquaTerra Farm produce is non-GMO, grown hydroponically, year-round in greenhouses with natural light, and never exposed to harsh chemicals. This allows us to provide clean, highly nutritious, and delicious produce with great shelf-life. Our strict standards of responsible, sustainable, and regenerative farming include conservation (water, electricity/solar, etc.), organic pest management only (beneficial insects, OMRI-certified products, etc.), and land management.
