Hello from Sweden

Hi! I am a tomatoaddict from the south of Sweden with about 30 years of growing tomatoes in my own garden. I love to trade seeds, which means I always have more sorts to grow than there is possible to fit in and a large anxiety which ones to plant every year. I love all sorts of tomatoes with great taste and have tried some hundred sorts already. If I live until I get 200 and not trade any more seeds it will be possible for me to try all sorts I already have :lol: But it is so much fun trying new sorts that is not possible.

@Lyckero Sweden
Welcome to TomatoJunction! It's great to have you!

I don't speak Swedish (although I understand a little in written form), but I used to sing in Swedish in a Scandinavian Choir. I loved it; our director was Swedish; she was awesome.

I look forward to hearing more from you.

Welcome @Lyckero Sweden from San Diego.

This reminds me of a time in the late 60s. I was attending a tiny school in the south of France called L'ecole Riviera for a week or two. I had two roommates and one was named Carl. I didn't get to know him well. I was told that he was heir to the Swedish throne.

A very warm welcome to you @Lyckero Sweden. It seems that we have the same addiction. I will never be able to grow all of the varieties of tomato seeds that I have even though I find people to help me grow them. This is the place to be if you like getting tomato seeds. In the fall and winter they are flying around everywhere.

Greeting from America's Dairyland!

My maternal Great Grandparents emigrated from Sweden to Iron Mountain, MI and eventually homesteaded in Aurora TWSP/Florence County WESconsin.

Great Grandmother Ida Christina Goransson (1861-1925) won a medal for the best butter in the entire country of Sweden not just once, but TWICE!

Her husband Johan wanted to go to America, the guy for whom she made that award-winning butter wanted her to stay; LUV won out!
