MAGTAG VI - 2011 - Winners List!
It was another "In Like Flynn" kind of day ...
The largest tomato was Omar's Lebanese, grown by Greg Flynn - 1 lb, 13-1/2 oz. Greg beat his dad, Neil, who had the second-largest tomato. Oh, well, the only good thing about Greg winning Largest Tomato is the fact that I can use his cute kids on next year's poster!

1. Green Doctors Frosted - Gregory William Flynn (the favorite by far!)
2. Isabel Pink - G. Flynn

Rob Kasper from the Baltimore Sun snuck in at the end of the festival, but I noticed him and made him draw raffle tickets for the jars of MAGTAG sauce and peaches that Lynn T. so kindly provided. All proceeds went to Trudi Davidoff's WinterSown Educational organization.
Thanks to everybody who brought tomatoes, food, and themselves to the event. I counted 35 attendees, not including Emily the dog. And although we missed a few regulars (Annebert, Mary, Hank), there were several newbies that I hope we convinced to grow heirloom/OP tomatoes in the future!
