Hello from NW Indiana
I post at TVille and iDigg as Fortyonenorth, but discovered thetomatogarden through Tania’s site. Seems like a great place for spirited discussion
I’ve been gardening for more than twenty years, but only started growing tomatoes four years ago.
We live in the Indiana Dunes, a stone’s throw from Lake Michigan. Our underlying soil is almost pure beach sand - “completely unsuitable for agriculture” as deemed by the USGS. In any event, I garden in raised beds and containers and grew about thirty heirloom varieties this year, looking to grow about 50-60 next year - the list keeps growing, of course. I also grow sweet and hot peppers, potatoes, onions and lots of garlic.
