Welcome to the Kentucky Tomato Project
August update!
As we write this in mid August we all agree that our tomato project has been a big hit! We had hoped to do more documenting throughout the summer- and pics are still rolling in -so as we get them we'll add them to our blog. One neat story- a taxi driver who drives some of our artists home was given a plant- as were the artists he drives- he has been checking out their plants as they grow and tells us that they are producing lots of tomatoes- and so is the plant that he took home! * We have been meeting with folks at UK's Human Development Institute and we are currently exploring ways in which our program can be expanded and strengthened next year.
Rebecca brought in one of the tomatoes that she grew at home from a plant we gave her. She took it back home and ate it- Oh Yeah! Here is a an update from the gardeners at LexPro
