Come along to our tomato open day, where we will have a garden tour and tasters, tomato seed saving demo, cookery demo, kids activities, tomato art, tomato throwing competition, a delicious supper (tickets to be purchased separately) and a bar and music.
There will be tours throughout the afternoon (starting at 2:30pm), plus a fantastic garden supper prepared by Chris Onions and his team from the Old Dairy Kitchen. Chris will also be serving cake and ice cream throughout the afternoon and will be selling some of his delicious seasonal preserves and other products.
We will be celebrating the diversity of the tomatoes that we grow at Trill Farm Garden, talking about some of the interesting varieties that are grown in the market garden and all about seed, but also just celebrating the market garden at this time of the year.
Plan for the day:
2pm - Gates open
2:30 - Tour of the garden, with a special focus on the tomatoes, including delicious tasters and a seed saving demo. A tour will run at the same time with the Bee Conservation Trust.
3:45 - Tomato cookery demo with Chiara Tomasoni of River Cottage and Masterchef
4:45 - Tour of the garden and bee tour, with a special focus on the tomatoes, including delicious tasters and a seed saving demo. A tour will run at the same time with the Bee Conservation Trust.
6pm - Garden supper (details below) and music
7pm - Tomato throwing competition (see how far you can throw a tomato with a partner before you drop it or it splats all over you)
8pm - Gates close
Garden supper
Chris Onions and the team from the Old Dairy Kitchen will be cooking up a delicious supper to enjoy in the early evening. A Lyme Bay Seafood Stew with Aioli and Focaccia or vegetarian option of Tomato and Sage Galettes with Flamingo Peas and Oyster Mushroom a la Greque can be chosen, and for the kids there will be Meatballs with pasta and Tomato sauce. For dessert, a Raspberry, Tomato and Basil Trifle!!
