Because they taste so wonderful on sandwiches and salads! And because they are red, red like the color of my true love's lips... Sorry. Started sliding into a song there. Won't happen again.

Farmers grow them for money, small private gardeners grow them for food and to make pizza.

I grow them for salsa and salads but mostly so I can sit on my balcony and eat them fresh off the vine with a cold beer.

Because they are many times richer, not genetically engineered tomatoes that are for mass producing only, the suppliers of all your major food store chains. Try buying some from a stand some time and see the difference. This is the same with all vegetables and fruits, roadside stands are usually home grown.

Tomato Fight!!! La Tomatina, Tomato Festival Spain, in Bunol near Valencia is essentially the world’s biggest food fight and you can see it all from your self catering apartment in Spain. The last Wednesday in August, Bunol’s population more than triples as people crowd the town square and pelt one another with tomatoes!

Because they have THE most amazing taste when you grown them yourself and what's better on a summer afternoon than picking a nice juicy tomato, slicing it and putting it on two pieces of fresh white bread with some salt & pepper and Duke's mayonnaise...mmmm ... heaven on earth!

They SMELL SO GOOD!!! And NO store-bought tomato can compare to fresh grown tomatoes. When you pick them ripe off the vine, they're .. uh.. divine!! ;oP

Why do I grow tomatoes? Because my mom told me too!! And as others have stated: home grown veggies are the BEST! And they're fairly easy to grow! Either from seed or from store bought plants. A little fertilizer, some water, some sunlight (don't forget to prune some of the branches and suckers), and some TLC!

some people say that tomatoes picked when green are bad for you

I grow them to eat them. They have a much better flavor picked fresh from the home garden than the mass grown ones do.
