Expanding My Horizons...

17 years ago

Usually I grow 2 or 3 varieties of tomatoes in my two small raised beds. Last year it was Brandy Boy, Big Beef and Sweet 100. This year I'm expanding my horizons by growing a number of heirlooms, adding a new raised bed and using SWC's. So far I've got Cherokee Purple, Royal Hillbilly, Pantano Romanesco, Black Krim, Better Boy, Big Beef, Koralik, Isis Candy and Principe Borghese growing in SWC's. My new raised bed has San Marzano, Brandy Boy, Anna Russian and Marianna's Peace. I plan to have a couple of tomato tasting parties later in the summer with the goal of increasing interest in heirlooms. My wife and I sold over $500 worth of heirloom tomato plants as a fundraiser this spring and want to expand the fundraiser for next spring. I'll post pictures in about a month.
