I built this page for beginners and experts alike. The experts may use it only as a gateway to the forum, which is fine, because the forum will be the heart of this web site. I promise to keep the site current, especially in the photo gallery and garden journal sections. In the coming weeks, I will add some tomato-related content, such as seed starting information, mulching options, and tomato support methods.
As for me, I'm 29 years old, and I work as a database programmer/analyst for a large bank. It can get stuffy in that office, and I know I'm looking forward to this gardening season!
Welcome to the site, and feel free to drop me an email at the following address: vanloonc@yahoo.com. I check the forum several times per day, as well, so please feel free to stop by (click the 'Message Board' link at the top of the page, and the Home Grown Tomatoes Forum will load in a separate window).
Happy Gardening!

My name is Christopher Van Loon. I am a relative newcomer to the world of gardening, but in the past two years, I feel I've learned a lot and I hope to learn even more.
