Enough potting mix, organic fertilizer, and powdered lime to plant your tomato.
An organic heirloom tomato plant, from the Green Roof Growers seed-starting group.
A comprehensive understanding of how SIPs work and how to put yours to work once you get home.

You're in luck. Bruce has some incredibly robust heirloom tomato starts for sale. There's quite a good selection remaining.
