The 2023 GVGO Mike Demars Memorial Tomato Contest is now closed. Congratulations goes out to team 5 (Joel Jarvis, Kirk Poirier and myself) for winning this year. Team 5 had a winning team weight of 25.45 lbs. The winners will receive free membership for 2024 and a GVGO hat. It was a tough growing season for many growers but we still managed to have12 growers achieve new personal best tomato weights this year. That was good to see! Hopefully everyone had fun growing tomatoes this year and we can do this again next year.
