San Marzano Tomato seeds

Highly-prized by chefs worldwide, our San Marzano tomato seeds represent an aromatic Italian paste variety with a rich heritage. This heirloom tomato holds a special place in the hearts of culinary enthusiasts, particularly renowned for its excellence in sauces and canning.
 
The elongated, blocky fruits of the San Marzano tomato mature to reveal a small, discreet seed cavity that can be effortlessly scooped out, leaving behind pure, meaty goodness. This unique characteristic translates to significantly less boiling time to achieve a top-tier paste. The tomato's shape is not only advantageous for canning but also proves excellent for drying.
 
Ideal for cultivation in garden plots, raised beds, and greenhouses, San Marzano seeds give rise to a traditional Italian cultivar that has been commercially produced since the 20th century. Introduced in 1926, these seeds have become a staple in Italian agriculture, locally known in Valle del Sarno as "Pomodoro San Marzano dell'Agro Sarnese-Nocerino." Often likened to the renowned Roma tomato in terms of shape, size, and flavor, our San Marzano seeds provide an authentic taste of traditional Italian tomato cultivation.
