I used to have enormous gardens and so could plant row after row of tomatoes. I no longer have space for a large garden, so I grow my tomatoes in containers. Pots! I call them pots.

I learned to grow tomatoes from my husband’s Uncle Red. He was an avid gardener and president of several garden clubs. Sometimes I think men may be the best gardeners. And sometimes I want to kick myself for that thought. Anyway, I learned.

We’re lucky today because there are so many resources to teach us how to grow food. But it can be overwhelming. When I teach at private gardens, I say:

Lessons on growing tomatoes or any food should cost you nothing. Save your money for plants, seeds, and supplies.

You’ll discover what style gardener feels right with you and whose information best meets your needs. It’s an adventure. Let’s make it fun.

If you’ve grown tomatoes in containers and just want my secret planting tips that work skip down a few headings.
