History
- New release of Wild Boar Farms in 2015. Named after a tomato friend of Brad Gates.
- Norwood was great historian and passionate gardener from Mandeville Louisiana. He passed away in 2010. Sometime in early 2000’s Brad Gates sent Norwood Beauty King seeds. He reported that one plant produced clusters of large cherry size tomatoes that looked like mini Beauty Kings. In 2012 Brad re-discovered these seeds while going through his seed collection and grew them out for two seasons.
