The evening begins with a free dinner featuring meat or veggie burgers, sides, and a tomato tasting from 5:00–5:45 pm. At 5:45, participants will join a farm tour and discussion led by Jared Zystro, OSA’s Research and Education Director, covering organic vegetable seed production, tomato breeding, and pathogen management.
