Default Leaf curling and very curled new growth

Hello,

Warning - this is my first garden and first time growing tomatoes!

My Pink Berkeley Tie Dye and Galina's Cherry (both grown from seed) are showing leaf curling, and the newer leaves are very curled/deformed. The Galina's isn't as bad as the Tie Dye, but in addition, it has some yellowing leaves.

I've researched for hours now and am convinced this could be any or all viruses, nutritional deficiencies, etc! Some details:
  • Plants are in a raised bed
  • It's been raining a ton and weather has been cooler than normal
  • I haven't noticed any pests on the plants, but I have had some aphids on a dwarf tomato plant about 4 feet away. That plant seems fine so far
  • I've been fertilizing about every other week with Texas Tomato Food since the plants set fruit
  • I side-dressed with Unco Industries worm castings one time after they set fruit
  • I put down lawn clippings as mulch months ago. The lawn has no herbicides, fertilizer, etc. My neighbors don't apply anything to their lawns either
  • My other tomato plants (7) aren't having issues aside from a few with some minor leaf curling

Any help is appreciated! I can give more details or photos if needed.
