The Mule Team Tomato is a reliable heirloom variety known for its robust flavor and productivity.

The flesh is juicy and meaty, with a well-balanced flavor that combines sweetness with a slight tang, making it perfect for slicing, fresh eating, or canning.

Indeterminate. 75-85 days from transplant. Meaty red globes that weigh on average 8-12 ounces but can get up to 1 pound. Original seeds came from Joe Bratka's father. Joe found the seeds in glass jars in a tool shed on his property but could not get any of them to germinate. He then sent the seeds to tomato heirloom expert Carolyn J. Male, and the rest is history. Excellent mild, sweet flavor. Bears continually to fall. Very heavy producer.

First introduced in the 1920s, the Mule Team Tomato earned its name due to its strong, hardy nature, much like the mule it was named after. Known for its reliable yields, this variety continues to be a favorite among gardeners who seek both a high-producing and flavorful tomato for a variety of culinary uses.
