Field tomatoes
(2.5kg box)

Beef tomatoes from our orchard (2,5kg box) | Naranjas del Carmen

3-5 pieces per kilogram. In one 2,5kg box you'll receive between 11 and 14 tomatoes depending on their size.

Very juicy tomato with an intense and sweet flavour. Thin skin, few seeds and meaty texture.

The tomato is a climacteric fruit, which means that it continues to ripen after being harvested. As soon as the tip starts to change to a reddish colour, this indicates that the tomato has already reached its perfect ripening stage from within.

In our garden we cultivate tomatoes of the Marmalindo variety characterized by a flattened shape, pronounced creases and the profound and stable connection with the rest of the plant. They are RAF tomatoes. RAF stands for "Resistant to Fusarium". Fusarium is a fungus that affects the growth of the plants.

We grow our tomatoes outdoors, which together with the temperature variation between day and night are the key to their great flavour. This means that their ripening depends entirely on the weather each year. An approximate calendar is from the beginning of June to the end of September.

In the early morning of the shipment day we go into our orchard to pick the tomatoes still cool from the night. We harvest those with the perfect maturity level so that they arrive safe and sound. Afterwards, we put them into a box with recycled material, without any plastic. In the afternoon of the same say, our transport partner comes and picks them up. #plasticfree

If you keep them in a fresh and airy place, they can last up to 2 weeks in good condition.

When you receive them, consume the ripest ones first. The tomato is a climacteric fruit, which means that it continues to ripen after being harvested. As soon as the tip starts to change to a reddish colour, this indicates that the tomato has already reached its perfect ripening stage from within.
