Sherva is admittedly obsessed with growing heirloom tomatoes. In our 9th episode, she lists the 42 varieties she is growing this year. Yes, that's right 42...and she's waiting on a few more to come in the mail. 

To many home gardeners tomatoes are the number one reason to grow food. "Store-bought tomatoes taste like disappointment", says one anonymous gardener, but I think we can all agree. If you are looking for some exciting heirloom tomatoes to add to your list to grow, be sure to listen and even do an internet search of some of these on our list to find out more.
