The Great Tomato (Plant) Sale!
For anyone in the SF East Bay, if you are interested in growing tomato plants this year, the Contra Costa Master Gardeners are holding a huge tomato plant sale this upcoming Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 10-3 at 2640 Shadelands Dr., Walnut Creek. Plants are $2 each (cash/check only), all of them heirlooms which have been tested in this area. Visit The Contra Costa Master Gardeners site for more info.
I'll be there from 10-12:30 on Thursday and Friday, happily answering any and all questions about growing tomatoes. I'm quite familiar with a number of the varieties (I was happy to see they have almost all of my rock-solid standby heirlooms) and I'll advise anyone on the best choice for a given taste or location. :)
