Where do tomatoes come from? Fortunate tomatoes grow up in Tomato Country. Everything about the “Heartland” helps a tomato’s case: the amount of rain, the number of sunny days, the makeup of the soil, the angle of the sun, even the freeze/thaw cycle in early spring, which loosens the soil for the sake of the tender roots.
Here you can meet some people who care for our tomatoes, see how those tomatoes are doing right now and feel, we hope, very welcome.

HOW THE TOMATOES ARE DOING
The winter cold, while unpleasant to those of us dreaming of the beach, is actually beneficial in many ways. The natural forces of freezing and thawing cycles helps mellow and loosen the soil preparing for tiny tomato plant roots growth. It still doesn’t hurt to keep in mind what’s coming as the cold weather eases into summer.
