2009 TasteFest Review and Winners
The party was a great success this year! The best yet, I would say. The weather was perfect and so was the company. I took pics of most of the tomatoes, and others took pics of the people. I have to work today so I don't have time to get mine ready to post yet, but I have the next couple days off so they will go up soon. I will post others' pics as I get them.
There were 76 varieties to vote on. A few varieties showed up late so the total count was more like 90. The winners this year were: Best Tasting ~ Indian Stripe, grown by Jerry P. Sweetest ~ Snow White, grown by Mark Korney Tangiest~ ???(a green mystery from a pkt. from Tomatofest) grown by Richard Price. Largest ~ Slankard's 2lbs. 1.9oz grown by Jerry P. Smallest ~ Currant grown by me(I finally won something!) Prettiest ~ Green Zebra grown by Brenda F. Ugliest ~ Purple Calabash grown by Richard Price Norm Brown Award for Craziest Tomato Lover(who ever travels the farthest to come) ~ Jim(Jimche) and Galina from NJ Thanks to all who came and made the party a great success! You know I realize now we forgot a group picture, oh well next year! Remy
