Default Midwest Tomato Fest 2011

THE LOCATION IS NEIGHBORS PARK - 30TH AND D STREETS. SORRY ABOUT THAT!
The Midwest Tomato Fest will be held Sunday August 21 at Neighbors Park in Lincoln, NE. Time is 1:30 to 3:30 pm. The park is about 3 blocks from our old location (now a tool shed for parks & rec). We look forward to see ing old friends and meeting new friends - many of us have few tomatoes. I know I will have 1-3 varieties rather than 12-15. Bring a palate cleanser to share with the group - cukes, celery, carrots, bread, chips/dips - whatever you wish to bring. If we don't have a lot of tomatoes, we just talk more tomato and eat snacks!Please let us know if you are coming and I can send directions - pretty easy to find. Look forward to seeing everyone.

My tomatoes are beginning to really come on. We have a countertop full and more ripening every day. I hope I don't hit the "lull" just as we are meeting. Nontheless, we will be there if nothing else than to have some pie and renew friendships.

Yay Tomato Fest!

I've been getting a steady trickle of tomatoes for a week now, so with any luck I'll have some to share at the event.

As with most years, my big harvest is from the last week in July to the second week of August and right now I am in the "lull" period. Maybe by next week there will be a few ripe ones to bring. See you all there. Thanks for the work Piegirl.
