Legendary local heirloom tomato grower and Gold Ridge Organic Farms’ neighbor, Larry Wagner, will cover the essential techniques to help you succeed – from choosing the right varieties to harvesting ripe, flavorful fruit.

Larry and his wife Cris have spent 25 years growing 400 heirloom tomato plants and over 70 varietals on the nearby Volkerts Family Ranch. They supply restaurants, donate to nonprofits, and share their harvest with friends and neighbors.

Larry will walk you through every key step: seed starting, soil prep, planting, watering, pruning, seed saving, and more. You’ll leave with practical tips, fresh inspiration, and your very own heirloom tomato plant!

Morning tea will be served.
