Year of Tomatoes
2009 YEAR OF TOMATOES
The Gazebo is ready! What a tribute to Indiana tomatoes and Red Gold!

In 2009, we celebrated THE YEAR OF TOMATOES presented by Red Gold, at this year’s 2009 Indiana State Fair.  It was a record year with almost 974,000 fairgoers attending the 17-day fair. This year’s partnership with the Indiana State Fair reinforced the quality and natural health benefits of Red Gold Tomatoes, in addition to the importance of Red Gold Tomatoes to Indiana agriculture and the local economy. We hope you enjoyed the fair and learned a little about tomatoes in the process. It is always a pleasure for us to meet and spend time with our consumers.  Winners of the various Red Gold Year of Tomatoes events will be posted below.
