EP #17 - Old Germans and Midnight Snacks. Talkin' bout and Tasting Tomatoes at Countryside Farm Market

I did something crazy. I recorded a podcast live at the Countryside Farmers Market, one of my favorite places to buy seasonal, local produce. Podcast purists, you've been warned, this episode won't sound the same. You'll hear chefs talking. Kids screaming. Chris Miller singing and strumming his guitar. You'll catch a bit of train whistle too.  It's doesn't sound perfect. But it was a perfect summer Saturday for the annual Tomato Tasting at the market. I talk tomatoes with Mindy Bartholomae, a retired farmer and longtime market vendor, who knows a lot about growing tomatoes. I also caught up with with Chef Vinnie Cimino in between food demos.  With a name like that I was pretty sure he knew his way around a tomato.
