Went to Nashville's Tomatofest today; far more fest than tomato. A pleasant street carnival, the only actual tomatoes in view were about two blocks away from most of the fun and consisted of over-ripe Marianna's Peace, mis-labeled Cherokee Purples (probably Black Krim's - no cracking), some un-ripe Green Zebra's and un-labeled golden cat faced 10 - 12 ouncers. Lots of fun, but I'd sure like to see a real tomato oriented, actual tomato grower tasting and seed event in the area. Anyone in the Montgomery County area interested in a small get-together?
