We are soon to depart for Rock Hill, South Carolina. I was very fortunate to be invited to speak at the Joy of Gardening event - link is here - tomorrow morning. My hope is to get the audience enthused, excited and informed about all aspects of heirloom tomatoes - including the history, availability and culture.
These opportunities to speak to interested audiences each season help me to remain excited and motivated in my gardening journey, and there are always wonderful questions that make me think about how I can always improve my efforts. So off we go today, leaving behind (anxiously of course) all of my thousands of growing seedlings. Of course, they are in the safety of my office or the garage, as the weather is likely to get a bit wild later on today, with a hard frost coming tomorrow night.
Next thing on the to-do list when I return - plant a final flat of tomatoes for the seedling sales, then start planning for the real fun of the gardening season - the various tomato and pepper project plantings. And....it is already time to transplanting lettuce, greens and beets. And...and......so much to do - always so much to do (and such fun to do it!).
