"You can make pasta sauce, you can eat them raw, you can make a tomato sandwich,” listed Lizzie Wright, of Sugar Camp Farm. “They are actually a fruit, although people think they are a vegetable. They are a fruit."
There's food, local crafts, and plenty of live music. The event was scheduled to last until 9 p.m. Saturday.
