Just how tempting are your tomatoes? Are they healthy and juicy and just bursting with scrumptious flavor and rich, eye-catching color? If they are, we'd like you to prove it! Enter our Tempting Tomatoes Photo Contest and let us see just what a perfectly gorgeous tomato you've grown.
The photos will be judged on more than the simple awesomeness of the tomato; we'll also be looking at photo quality, which includes composition, color, etc. So, start studying those beautifully delicious fruits (they're probably beginning to ripen about now!) and break out the camera! We'll choose 1 Grand-prize winner, who will receive a $50 Park Seed Gift Certificate, and 3 runners-up, who will each be given a $15 Gift Certificate. The winners will have their names and photos published in an upcoming issue of Park News!
When entering, please include your name, hometown and state, and email address. Also, please be sure to tell us the variety of Tomato you are photographing. You have until July 28 to get your pictures in. More info on how to enter can be found on ParkSeed.com. Good luck!
