Wantage, N.J.-based farmers Rich and Sue Sisti of Catalpa Ridge Farm will supply tastings of some of the tomato varieties they and neighboring New Jersey farmers grow. Favorites have included the tart -Aunt Ruby-s German Green,- the supremely flavorful -Brandywine Pink,- and the ever-popular -Radiator Charlie-s Mortgage Lifter.- New varieties are grown every year.

Catalpa Ridge Farm will also have packaged dips, pestos and salsas made from farm ingredients. They'll also bring a selection of farm-fresh produce including corn, garlic, herbs, peppers, onions, eggplant, summer squash and more!

Catalpa Ridge will return in October with even more garlic varieties for our Third Annual Heirloom Garlic Festival, so mark your calendar for Sunday, October 17, from 1 to 5 p.m., for free tastings of recipes made from -the stinking rose.-
