I went to a Tomato Extravaganza workshop this weekend and learned so much. I picked up some great handouts and thought I would share them with all of my farmgirl sisters.

Love Apple Farms claims that you can grow over seven foot tall tomatoes if you follow their advice in these handouts. Towards the end of the PDF file there is a handout specific to growing tomatoes in containers (which I am doing this year). I planted my tomatoes yesterday and I can't wait to watch them grow.

If you can't access the following link, you can go to my blog and view the link from there.

Happy Monday my farmgirl sisters!

Thanks so much! I was able to print it. My crop last year wasn't as plentiful as I had hoped and I ran out of canned tomatoes in Jan. Boughten ones just aren't the same..............

Kris: I am so happy you could access the Love Apple Farms website to get the information.

Teresa: I am glad to hear you could access the PDF. It is wonderful information!

Kris, Sorry you can't access the link. There is way too much for me to type. Maybe you can access the information from the Love Apple Farm website. There isn't all of the information on the website that is in the PDF on my blog, but some of it is on there. Try these links:

Hi Rebekah, I can't see the file either way. If you could tell the basics, that would be great. I love tomatoes and have already planted 42 so far. I will get more in a few weeks. I would love to know more. I am always up for more info on growing healthy plants. Thanks.
