festival tomate posterThe Cjateau de la Bourdaisiere near Montlouis-sur-Loire (32 Indre-et-Loire, Centre) the 12th Annual Festival de la Tomate et des Saveurs is being held on 11 and 12 September 2010.

Clearly for all tomato lovers and connoisseurs, the chateau is owned by the Prince de Broglie – the château’s unique tomato conservatory features over 630 varieties of heirloom tomatoes in every imaginable size, shape, and color. De Broglie—a passionate gardener—has been collecting tomato seeds since 1995, searching out unique varietals in markets around the world to plant in his garden.

This year’s theme concerns the dietary benefits of the tomato for your health. Amongst the attractions will be some cookery demonstrations, a slow food display, 35 or so stands of exhibitors. The chateau also boasts a new Dahlia Garden.
