Carolyn, I've bought it in Moscow in one shop for gardeners and it was in commercial packaging by the seed company Biotechnika from St.Peterburg. I don't think they are originator for this variety because they are famous mostly for cold tolerant tomatoes suitable for open soil growing for Zone3/4. As I remember sometimes they pack the seeds from different sources too.
But I think I know the origin of the word Gogoshary. There is a big Moldovian village with the name Gogoshary. It is also a variety name for plain tomato-type red sweet pepper from Moldovia. It was since Soviet Union time that we used to call all cheese-type plain sweet peppers as Gogoshary
