Tomato Bootcamp Live Online!

It’s not easy to grow tomatoes in the south. Our humidity, heat, pest and disease pressure can wreak havoc in the garden.
Join us for an interactive and live workshop with Craig LeHoullier, Timothy Noyes and Melissa DeSa to learn the secrets we've accumulated over the years to successfully grow tomatoes in the south!
The season in North Carolina is underway, while the one here in North Florida is winding down. Meet us in the middle! You will see our season highlights with video tours and demos, with lots of opportunity to ask questions along the way.
From seed starting to seed saving, we’ll cover a lot of ground:
- Planning a tomato garden
- Seed starting and transplanting
- Staking & supports
- Maintenance & troubleshooting
- Saving seed
- Breeding basics
