Neil Lockhart doesn’t grow tomatoes halfway. 🍅

A Seed Savers Exchange Lister for more than 30 years, Neil currently offers tomato varieties through The Exchange and maintains a large personal collection.

In this From the Archives episode of Sowing Connections, Neil shares how his tomato-growing journey began, how exchanging seeds led to lifelong friendships, and how a single plant helped him rescue the nearly lost ‘Wes’ tomato.

He also offers advice for preventing cross-pollination, and getting started as a new seed saver—and reveals why his sister’s tomato pie might be the perfect meal.

🎧 Listen to “A Passion for Tomatoes”:

A farm is a business, but it rarely functions as an isolated one.

It purchases supplies, hires labor, maintains equipment, transports products, works with buyers, and relies on people with specialized agricultural knowledge. In some regions, farms also help sustain processors, auctions, markets, restaurants, and institutions seeking locally or regionally produced food.

When farms close, the immediate loss belongs to the farm family and its employees. Over time, however, the effects may spread.

Supporting farm viability is therefore not only about preserving individual operations. It is also about retaining the economic capacity that allows agriculture to remain possible in a place.
