Donations

Our mission is to help all Chicago-area people – no matter their background, resources or zip code – experience the flavor and glory of handpicked, homegrown, vine-ripened heirloom tomatoes.

We donate plants to any garden that:
• Teaches children the wonder of growing their own food,
• Provides vegetables to residents in areas that lack access to fresh food,
• Donates all or most of its harvest to food banks / food pantries, or
• Feeds people of very limited resources who are doing the hard work of tending the garden. 

Our guidelines:
• Maximum of 24 free plants.
• Maximum of an additional 36 plants available for a 20% discount of list price.
• Your group agrees to recognize Chicago Tomato Man in any promotional efforts.
• Your group agrees to show us any marketing materials – solely to correct any egregious error in facts or logo usage.
• Your group provides a receipt (by email is AOK) acknowledging the donation.
