Hello all
I am a chef in NYC and I use a tremendous amount of tomatoes, In season, I purchase a lot from the Union Square Market were prices are $3-4 a lb
I am always in touch with the local farmers, and I am willing to pay a premium for this quality of tomato. Cherrys are always a great idea They are a multitude of colors, easy to grow and have a premium price and look great on the plate Most customers have never seen a stripped cherry or a blush tomato
Don't sell them without a premium! They are worth it and Chefs are willing to pay it " If it is more expensive it must be better"

My 2 Cents
