Our 13th annual Tomato Gala was held on Saturday, August 19. Many varieties were sampled by a crowd of 150 tomato enthusiasts. There were 125 ballots turned in and the overall winner was Paul Robeson, followed by Sun Sugar. Watch for category results coming soon.
We hope you enjoy these favorite tomato recipes provided by master gardeners.
On June 10, 2023, we celebrated 50 years of the Extension Master Gardener Program with over 250 in attendance at our Garden Faire event.

Let’s talk plants! Plant and insect diagnostic clinics
WSU Master Gardener Program volunteer diagnostic teams identify plant and pest problems and recommend solutions for lawns and gardens. Chapter foundations are key to financial support of these plant clinics.
The first test plant clinic was held at the Tacoma Mall in 1972, with overwhelming results. This led to the beginning of the WSU Extension Master Gardener Program in 1973, and today university-educated volunteers conduct plant clinics throughout Washington state, the US, and internationally.
