Tomato, known as Tamatar in Hindi and Tamata in Telugu, is one of the most essential vegetables in Indian kitchens. Though botanically a fruit, it is used as a vegetable base in curries, chutneys, rasam, sambar, and salads. Tomatoes are packed with Vitamin C, potassium, folate, lycopene, and antioxidants, making them both healthy and flavorful.
At Seed Vanam, we provide organic, non-GMO tomato seeds carefully sourced for high germination and healthy plant growth. Our seeds produce bright red, juicy, and chemical-free tomatoes, perfect for daily cooking.
