It’s tomato time! Martha Swales (Marf's Kitchen Garden) and Jamie Walton (Nettles and Petals) dive into the wonderful, rosy, glorious world of everyone’s favourite gateway veg. They share harvesting highs, planting tips, and taste their way through the mind-boggling range of tomato varieties bursting out of their beds. Martha makes her case for the unbeatable Sun Gold, while Jamie shows off some seriously impressive beefsteaks.


There’s also a potted history of Britain’s uneasy relationship with the so-called “devil’s fruit,” and a trip (in spirit, at least) to Spain’s legendary La Tomatina festival — where there are actual rules about how to throw a tomato.


Expect juicy chat, a few pips of chaos, and plenty of ideas for what to do when your garden is overflowing with homegrown tomatoes.
