Tomato Plants 1/27/24
We have some tomato plants that are ready for purchase. Here is what David has to say about them:
We have tomato plants ready. This year they will $7.95 no matter the size or how many you purchase.
Before you accuse us of highway robbery keep the following in mind:
We grow our own which means we do it by hand instead of machine like the big boys do. This is labor intensive. Labor is not cheap.
Due to the cold snap, and the fact that we have to keep the temperature at least 55 degrees for the plants to grow, we have added electrical and propane gas charges. Electricity has gone up from last year and so has the propane gas.
We added more electrical outlets for more heat and other improvements to the greenhouse. Added more heaters.
We had to replace the pump on the water well.
Property taxes have gone up. No matter how many times Texans vote to decrease the rate, the tax people just raise the value to cover the difference. Something they and politicians think Texans are too stupid to figure out.
Seeds, planters and trays have all gone up in price.
The germination mix we use has gone up in price.
Fertilizer has gone up in price.
There are many other miscellaneous expenses that go into maintaining a greenhouse.
Our price we be $7.95.
But you have to look at the value. One plant has the ability to produce at least 15 pounds of home grown, great-tasting tomatoes. Not like the wax tasting stuff you buy in the store.
This is about .55 cents per pound. When was the last time you paid .55 cents for a pound of tomatoes?
The value far exceeds the price of the plant.
I hope you have a great growing season.

Ad For David's Garden Seeds®,
The Best Non-GMO Seeds In The State of Texas!
This is our beautiful Farm Store. Come in and shop for seeds, canned foods, pecan treats and more. We are adding new things all the time.Hi Everyone! Thank you for visiting my website! I am Mrs Davids
Garden Seeds® aka Mrs. David's Garden Seeds and I think you should know that there is a wonderful seed
company in the great state of Texas called David's Garden Seeds®. We grow some of our seed, we count, hand pack, print our own envelopes, and ship seeds out to you right here from our farm. This used to be an old peanut farm. When the owner died about 15 years ago, his sons split the farm up and sold it in pieces. We are fortunate to have gotten a piece.
Our business started in our home in San Antonio in September of 2009. Honestly, I told David, "Don't bother, it won't work!". I am so glad that David did not listen to me because it did work! By 2015, we had 8 employees working in my home every day and David found a storefront in San Antonio and moved the business there. In 2016, I quit my day job and went on the payroll. The company grew some more and David moved to a bigger storefront in 2017. In 2019, we found a beautiful piece of land over in Atascosa County and turned it into a farm out near Poteet. David and I moved out here to live in August of 2019.
In 2020, we moved our company out to the farm. We have a beautiful Farm Store filled with seeds, a gazebo with a pond full of koi and gold fish for you to visit and a working farm for you to tour. Come by and visit us at 5029 FM 2504 in Rossville, just outside of Poteet, Texas, Monday through Friday from 9am to 5pm. Or you can order seeds online from our user-friendly website, www.davidsgardenseeds.com.
Our beautiful new farm store has almost 2,000 varieties of seeds and more. Mrs Davids Garden Seeds® looks forward to meeting you when you visit.
