Scott Klittich from Otto & Sons Nursery in Fillmore, CA Thank you for joining us for a very special encore episode with Scott Klittich, owner of Otto & Sons Nursery in Fillmore! Don't miss Rose Days 2023 at the nursery, happening April 19-21. Celebrate Otto & Sons 30th annual open house with a 1-mile walk through the nursery and learn more about rose growing and maintenance. More information is available on the Otto & Sons website. Not only is Otto & Sons the largest growers of roses this side of the Rocky Mountains, the robust 40+ acre nursery includes acres of citrus trees, stone fruits, and perennial favorites. Whether you lean towards Floribunda, Grandiflora or Hybrid Tea roses, Scott and his knowledgeable staff can help avid home gardeners - and beginners alike - select from a variety of colors and fragrances.  Beware! Not all plants are suited for the growing condition of Ventura Country! Water availability, soil conditions, and climate are all important factors that must be considered when selecting a varietal. Just because plants may be available at some stores, doesn't mean they're right for Ventura County.  Passionate about the care of roses, Otto & Sons also offer in-person pursuing classes on Saturdays in the month of January. Can't make it to class? You're in luck! During Covid, Scott and his team recorded and shared many care videos on the nursery's website. While recording this episode, Scott let us in on an interesting piece of trivia….There are more citrus trees located in residential landscaping than in commercial farms! Can you guess which famous celebrity singers have enjoyed Otto & Sons roses? For a hint, you'll have to listen to the interview!

“I'm after the charm of tomatoes. I'm after the history of tomatoes. Just obviously, appeal and taste and all of that. But if I can tie it up all in one bundle, that's what I wanna choose.” Tomatoes are a nearly universal plant—native to South America, they now flourish on every continent except Antarctica. Tomatoes have been bred, often by home gardeners, for their looks, flavors, and suitability for diverse climates. This has resulted in thousands of varieties of heirloom tomatoes, meaning tomatoes that can be grown from seed. These plants carry stories of exploration and innovation, and they can also teach important lessons about gardening and our connection to food. Every year, garden designer Scott Daigre celebrates heirloom tomatoes through his Tomatomania! pop-up events, which bring hundreds of varieties of tomato seedlings to Southern California gardeners. In this episode, Daigre explains what heirloom tomatoes are, why people love them, and how to grow them in your garden.

Tomato experts Craig LeHoullier ("Epic Tomatoes") and Keith Mueller ("KC Tomato") return yet again to impart their wisdom about America's favorite fruit in Tomatomania V. They talk growing strategies and favorite varieties...including some they have developed themselves.

Sara went to something called "Tomatomania" and Caitlin has an achy wisdom tooth. Sara recaps a lunch with a new friend which leads to a discussion of the double standards when it comes to legendary women comedians, the way fictional comedians are portrayed on TV, the difficulty of portraying stand up, and the sometimes challenge of enjoying entertainment as someone who works in entertainment.

Millennials and Gen Zers have a lot of drinking options: hard seltzers, hard tea, cocktails, beer in a can. Can those who make wine and non-alcoholic beverages keep up? Tomatomania is popping up at plant nurseries across SoCal, where you can learn about different tomato varieties and get your hands on hard-to-find seedlings.

Paul meets with Scott Daigre from Tomatomania to talk about their 150+ hybrid and heirloom tomato varieties, how the seasonal celebration events came to be, and tips for growing your own favorite garden vegetable.

Tomatomania! is back and Scott Daigre joins us to discuss this fascinating fruit and its many uses and importance in the culinary world. After a pandemic hiatus, Daigre is producing 13 events this year, which are more than just a chance to find rare breeds and learn growing techniques and advice, they take on a festival-like atmosphere. Daigre's interest in gardening began when he was very little on his grandfather's farm in southern Louisiana, and continued even through his corporate career in marketing, until he followed his passion to a job as a nurseryman, then taking over the helm of Tomatomania! nearly 15 years ago. He is a regular on Evan Kleiman's popular KCRW radio show, "Good Food," and the author of "Tomatomania!," a lavishly illustrated book full of his insights and advice on this versatile fruit. We also talk about how he came to find and love Ojai, our climate and its impact on growing tomatoes, as well as the history of tomatoes from the Incans and Aztecs to the present day. He talks about preserving tomatoes, both by canning but also freezing and the uses of tomato water. We did not talk about Baffin Island, the lost wax method of jewelry making or Summit restaurants burgers.
