Any upstate/WNY/CNY/northern PA/OH, southern Ontario & Quebec growers out there? Is anyone interested in a tomato tastetest/tastefest this year? I think there should be enough growers in these areas to put together a good assembly of varieties to have our own CHOPTAG-like tastetest.
We could have it on a weekend not conflicting with any other (CHOPTAG, TOMATOPALOOZA, etc) for a good draw of people, and late enough to have a large assortment of varieties. We (Remy & I) have discussed 2 different possible locations so far, one is private property (cottage) in Grand Island NY (between Buffalo & Niagara Falls!) and the other is a lake resort that has camping, swimming/beach, restaurant, entertainment, alcohol permitted, but charges admission (have to check but minimal amount for the day, maybe $5/person or a per car fee.) It's about 20 miles east of Buffalo, near Alden, NY, about 15 minutes from a Six Flags amusement park.
I know some people in this area will be attending CHOPTAG and maybe some 'TAGers will now reciprocate and have a reason to see Niagara Falls or make a night/weekend out of it.
I have 87 varieties started, Remy has a bunch too, anbody else interested in participating? Your thoughts?
Please post where you are & what you're growing, and if interested in participating.
Thanks.
