Find your perfect tomato at TomatoBash!
Tomatoes are the most popular home grown fruit, and there are literally thousands of varieties from all over the world to chose from - but which to pick? The Greensteaders nonprofit is here to help with our 4th annual heirloom tomato tasting party, where we will offer tastings of 60 of our favorite varieties of heirloom tomatoes for eating, cooking, growing, & seed saving - all from local Bay Area organic farms & gardens. We'll have every color imaginable - from classic reds to greens, yellows, oranges, purples, blacks and tricolors! We'll have everything from classic red slicer tomatoes to sour Green Zebras, meaty Cherokee Purples, and sweet Isis Candy Cherries. There will be tomato-themed gourmet finger foods included & artisanal products and local wines for sale. Heirloom growing, seed saving & cooking advice will be shared.
