Dwarf Franklin County is a rugose, potato leaf, dwarf tomato plant that produces, small, two to four ounce, oblate-shaped, red fruits. Although it could be considered a distinctive, large cherry-type tomato, it looks like a miniature beefsteak-type. They deliver a very nice flavor and are quite abundant producers.

Dwarf Franklin County was selected from the “Wishful” family by Susan Oliverson whom did the majority of the work and named this variety. Other contributors included Craig LeHoullier, Jeff Bayes, and Jay Scott. Bill Minkey produced the release quantity of seed, which was introduced for the 2018 gardening season.
