Fresh Off the Vine

Taste a variety of heirloom tomatoes and get to know
local gardeners at MariLark Farms.

MariLark Farms welcomes the public to its 5th annual tomato tasting. Tomatoes have been grown organically on-site and all are heirlooms from seeds saved the previous seasons. Each year the farm grows hundreds of tomato starts for the local community, creating new farms in the process and highlighting the importance of plant biodiversity, seed saving, and supporting one’s community. All items provided at the tasting are plastic free and compostable. Feel free to bring your own tomatoes to share. Cost: Free, but donations accepted, with 50{94d79dd6af1e87a94e700e4c297236468333f22e27ed5757b44711974a9a4b91} of the proceeds donated to the NorCal Community Resilience Network. Info: here
