Organic Honey Drop Tomato
Description
Love Sungold? Meet Honey Drop!
Fruition’s most popular cherry tomato, Honey Drop has all the rich fruit flavor we love in a gorgeous rainbow of orange, gold and salmon. Abundant and less prone to cracking compared to Sungold, Honey Drop is open-pollinated as well, so she’s delicious without the bitter intellectual property restrictions and support of multi-national chemical corporations as surrounds Sungold.
After millennia of brilliant indigenous seedkeeping, Honey Drop is vision of Rachel and Tevis Robertson-Goldberg of Crabapple Farm in the beautiful Massachusetts Berkshires and their tomato-loving children! Plant breeding can be done without lab coats, let it be known! A portion of every packet sold returns to their farm to support their inspiring work, continuing to select delectable, resilient varieties for short seasons.
At Fruition, we sow tomatoes in soil blocks indoors 2 months before final frost, early April for us here in Zone 5, germinating them on heat mats with ease. Good light is essential: Younger, less stressed seedlings are healthier and more abundant than older, more stressed seedlings.

“Organic Honey Drop Tomato” is an amazing producer of sweet, orange cherry tomatoes. They germinate and grow well, plus the fruits lasted for at least 10 weeks indoors after I picked them green before a hard frost.

We grew these on a trellis on a 10 gallon fabric grow bag. It did fantastic!! It produced all summer long and was the last to meet the frost. They rarely made it into the house they were so sweet and tasty. Great texture. We can’t wait to grow them again this year. Ours were a Reddish orange on color.

I planted this variety for the first time last year. I had great germination with the seeds. The plants grew well, were very healthy and produced well into November until the first frost. The tomatoes were beautiful trusses of yellow 1 1/2 inch round fruits. I will be growing this variety again this year. My husband loved it in his salad.

This variety is by far our garden’s best producing tomato this year, with literally hundreds of beautiful and sweet orange cherry tomatoes on each plant. Honey Drop doesn’t disappoint! Looking forward to growing it for many years to come.
