Chicago area gardeners (esp tomato lovers!) - I will be at Morton Arb next Saturday [View all]
Here is the info where you can register http://www.mortonarb.org/events/edible-gardening-workshop-series-2
They've expanded to 60 spots - I think 40 or so far filled. I'll be breaking the 2.5 hour time slot into two pieces - one on tomato history, stories, general types, all geared toward helping you decide what you may want to grow.
Second half will be on tomato culture - all of the key steps between seed starting, planting, trouble shooting and maintenance, seed saving, recipes - as well as container and straw bale ways to grow them well....
Everyone will get a packet of seeds and some handouts (too early for seedlings!) - they will have my books there to sell, which I will sign...mostly this is about coming out to ask any questions you may have. Spread the word!
