Cut and pasted from an email sent to me:
Tomato Day is July 12th!
We hope you'll come celebrate with us! Festivities are 8:30am to noon, and will include:

One day is not enough to celebrate tomatoes! We are making it a Tomato Week:
- Come to the Wednesday Market (3pm-6pm) on July 9th for a tomato-themed sampling by Chef Marshall Smith of Glasshalfull.
- Visit participating local businesses in the week before Tomato Day (July 7-11) to get free Tomato Day Raffle tickets with your purchase! See our website for a list of participating businesses.
We hope to see you there!
