Hello from Southern California!
Hello, I'm from zone 9b. Love to grow tomatoes and save seeds! Also eggplant, squash, and peppers so I can make my own ratatouille! Looking forward to sharing and learning from all of you!

Welcome from the White Mountains! I LOVE making homemade ratatouille with my garden veggies too! It's just sooooo good. I tried making it one winter with grocery store veggies and it just wasn't the same at all.
Bee happy and pollinate freely!

Hi @chococat, and a belated welcome!
I'm also from SoCal (10b). Looks like there are a few of us here.
I'm about a week from planting out my tomato seedlings. Hoping all the rain we've been getting is just about done.
Cheers,
Bobby
