Tomato Fest is a vibrant summer celebration of peak-season tomatoes held annually at Wellspent Market in Portland, Oregon.

This outdoor festival is a dream come true for tomato lovers to celebrate the incredible diversity and flavor of this iconic crop.

Guests get to taste and buy dozens of unique tomato varieties—many bred for exceptional flavor and regional adaptability—while meeting the farmers and breeders who grow and develop them.

Cooking demonstrations are led by local chefs and culinary experts.

A special focus of the event is dry farming, a water-conserving growing method that not only supports environmental sustainability but also intensifies tomato flavor. Festival attendees learn how this technique is helping shape the future of resilient and flavorful farming in the Pacific Northwest.

Fun, festive, and informative, Tomato Fest is a hit every year!
