Thanks everybody. I felt bad at first but based on how adults treated kids who won i feel fine about it.

What an exciting day for your whole family. I am pleased that the kids did so well and were so proud. I am sure that it will help for them to continue to grow tomato plants their whole lives. This one day perhaps has changed their lifetime.
Well Done!

That's awesome, I just noticed this it would have been a long drive for me but fun. Maybe next time. What did the big boys weigh in at? I've never really gone out of my way to grow big tomatoes but I got a couple this year that were in the 1.25 lbs range which I'm guessing is like a cherry tomato in a big tomato competition.

We already started a couple seeds for them when we got home. The kids were all pumped up.
