Best of 2025: Tomatoes or Lack Thereof

This episode is the first in my Best of 2025 series and delves into a detailed analysis of my tomato trials for 2025, highlighting what worked, what didn't, and why. I share insights on disease resistance, specifically focusing on early blight, and the performance of different tomato varieties from various seed sources.

I’ll also touch on my plans for 2026, new varieties to be tested, and tips for making educated choices for next season's garden.

Plus, learn why I am having to say goodbye to a seed company that I’ve bought from for years.
