SUMMARY:Heirloom Tomato Festival at the Farmer's Market - Aug. 22nd
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, August 22nd\, The Carroll County Farmer’s Market is celebrating Heirloom Tomatoes. Hours are 8am-1pm. \nTo be considered an heirloom tomato\, the plants must be open pollinated\, which means by the wind or insects\, and has existed for at least 50 years.  The Master Gardeners will provide information on how to grow heirloom tomatoes and have heirloom seeds for customers to take home and grow next year.  In addition to the fresh tomato tasting\, there will be a variety of dishes using the heirloom tomatoes available for sampling\, as well as recipe cards. \nMany varieties of tomatoes will be available to sample and compare: Green Tomatoes\, Black Tomatoes\, \nPink Tomatoes\, Red Tomatoes\, Yellow Tomatoes\, Striped Tomatoes. Lots of food dishes are on hand to taste as well as recipes cards to take home. This is a really great celebration of the many uses of tomatoes. The event is a must see for any tomato lover. Be sure to come early\, however\, because the samples ran out early last year. \nRegular market vendors will provide tomatoes for purchase\, including many heirlooms. All other local produce is also available\, as well as watermelons\, corn\,  farm fresh beef\, pork\, lamb\, and The Hen’s Nest farm fresh eggs. \nOur food stands provide home baked goods\, including cakes\, pies\, scones\, cookies\, breads\, rolls and biscotti. You will also find jams and jellies\, dips\, honey\, nuts\, and more. \nEach week the craft vendors provide an assortment of handmade crafts.
