Growing Tomatoes

Seed prep question

16 years ago

I usually buy my tomato plants, but this year I want to grow from some seed I've saved. There are some tomatoes Wal-Mart sells under the name 'Campari'that I just love, and I've saved some 'maters that went bad. How do I harvest the seed? Do I need to clean them in some way, or just scoop them out of the 'mater and into my pots?

Any advice welcomed!
