Let’s talk tomatoes 2023! First, find out what’s new in tomato news: 

  • Why grape growers in Italy are switching to growing tomatoes.
  • What scientists have learned about the secret screams of tomatoes.
  • How to pick the best starter plants from the nursery
  • What companion plants are best to buddy up with tomatoes and which to plant far, far away.

    • Then learn what varieties Karen and Christy are growing each year.  HINT:  One is Better, one is Bigger and one is Super Fantastic.  Karen shares a great recipe! And we have two tomato themed Pod Plays – hand crafted just for the gardener’s funny bone.

    And lots to share about what is happening in our gardens:  Sunflowers, celery, cannabis, chives and sewer repair. Christy gets a bindweed mite that might be the organic solution we have all been searching for!  Mailbag (Ring Ring) delivers a letter from Patrick that gently reminds us we can all do better next year. Nice!

    Get rid of bindweed in Colorado!
