Lots of community activities going on. There is a farm down the road (mentioned in the news interview) that sells tomatoes but the festival is to celebrate the tomato. Tomato eating contest, shoot the tomato with a BB gun contest, gospel sing, and much more. Sounds like a lot of fun and considering that folks in the area suffered storm damage it should be a celebration of life. Thumbs up

Found a link you can see the brochure: http://www.jacksonvilletexas.c...

This link gives some times and locations. A 'farmers' market' is listed so that might be a place that they might have some tomatoes for sale.

Gosh, I wish I lived close enough to join in the fun.
