Tomato Tasting at Monticello
When: 08/07/2010

Heirloom tomatoes are now at the height of fashion, and one can only marvel at the genetic diversity found in everyone's favorite homegrown vegetable. Tomatoes are finally being esteemed, first and foremost, for their flavor, and this participatory workshop will examine and rate a sample of varieties now available to gardeners. Maggie Stemann Thompson and Pat Brodowski, Monticello’s Vegetable Gardener, will host this two-hour workshop.
Participants are encouraged to bring in their own favorite garden varieties. Reservations required. $10.
