Adopt A Tomato Newsletter
Dear Foster Families:
Thank you again for adopting orphan tomatoes. Now for some news to help you foster your new friend.
1. Your tomatoes planted a week or more ago should be taking off. Some may have flowers that will be tomatoes in a few weeks. Some may already have small tomatoes.
2. It May Be Time to Think About Giving Them a Stake or a Tomato Hoop to lean on.
3. Remember to Feed and Water your Adopted Plants Once a Week. Last week and this week were dry, so you might want to check your tomatoes out on Tuesday or Wednesday to see if they are thirsty.
4. Nurse a Tomato Line: If your Tomato is looking sickly (or if you have any other questions about plants), call the Winnebago County Plant Health Advisory Hot Line at 920-232-1986 or visit the Master Gardener Booth next to the Shared Harvest Tent at the Oshkosh Farmer’s Market.
5. At the Farmer’s Market: Shared Harvest will be promoting produce adoptions of some kind each week What's next? We can't always say for sure, but we will have Coffee Grounds for Hungry Tomatoes and Forget-Me-Nots on Saturday, July 11. . . So stop by every week and check us out.
