Wanted to give a hearty
SHOUT-OUT to Delectation of Tomatoes
https://www.delectationoftomatoes.com/.
Not only was my purchase delivered promptly, in a personally addressed envelope with (get this!) handwritten well-wishes for the 2022 growing season from "Dale," but he sent along a free sample of ~20 Dáchtyla Mynoa seeds!

These are the kind of people with whom I
LUV doing business; Tomato Ranchers!

Dale is my main 'go to guy' these days. He has an amazing collection of seeds to offer. Great customer service. He always includes a free package of seeds. He also has a vast knowledge of tomatoes and is kind enough to help you answer any questions. I seem to be talking to him frequently these days. He is a member here but is far to busy to participate much anymore. I HIGHLY recommend him as a seed vendor.

"Great customer service. He always includes a free package of seeds."
Like Herb Tarlek (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herb_Tarlek), what do I know, I've only been in sales all my life...
What I
DO know, and it would appear Dale does as well? Promise a lot, deliver more, and your clients will take
YOU out to lunch!

I could not have said it better. He is very helpful and his seeds kick butt. I grow out about 40 varieties every year and this year I sourced from established breeders/seed sellers located in North America and Europe. My favorite tasting tomatoes ended up coming from the * Free Seeds* pack included with my order from Dale
Make sure you grow those out!

I agree with all these shout outs! Just placed an order and had a couple of really positive interactions. Dale is a one man wonder with thousands of varieties. Pretty amazing work!

@SEAMSFASTER (AKA Dale) You need to come and read your fan mail!!! After that you need to keep your eye on the Giant Tomato Contest.

I've been too busy to place a promised order with another vendor. Hopefully in a couple of weeks.
But, I've decided that the next donations to the MMMM will go toward a purchase at Delectation. And, that doesn't stop any of you from ordering seeds by yourselves and sending them in. If you're going to do so, look through the "2021 Master List tomatoes", and select anything not there. If it were not for these vendors, the swap would not exist in the state that it's in.

I was really happy with my order as well, only ordered one seed pack and it came with a free pack and hand written note as well. I'll order more for sure.

Excellent news Tormato! Very excited to see Dale get the business. I ordered a bunch from him this year and everything was shipped promptly with a note. He even chose a few for me. He has worked so hard to get so many varieties grown on his own, as well as populating his website. There is a lot to choose from. Well done Dale!

Dale has been personally helping me source seeds for my Greek Tomato project. He is awesome.

I wanted to give this post a bump. I recently had a great experience ordering seeds from Delectation of Tomatoes. Dale's variety selection is fantastic. Customer Service was top-notch. When looking for seeds in the future, this is one of the first places I'll go.
