Tomato expert and author of the recently published Epic Tomatoes: How to Select & Grow the Best Varieties of All Time, Craig LeHoullier shares his top growing recommendations and tips for varieties for midwestern gardeners. Epic Tomatoes is the culmination of decades of LeHoullier’s passion for collecting, researching, and growing 2,000 varieties of tomatoes. After joining the Seed Savers Exchange in 1986, he focused on open-pollinated (non-hybrid) varieties in a wide range of colors, sizes, and flavors. He is responsible for naming, developing, and introducing many varieties—including the well-known Cherokee Purple—and recently has been involved in creating new dwarf varieties. Don’t miss this opportunity to meet Craig LeHoullier and to talk tomatoes! Copies of Epic Tomatoes and his newest book, Straw Bale Gardening, will be available for purchase and signing.
