Baton Roots Agroforestry Apprentice Karlie talks about the tomatoes growing at the farm and some of their health benefits. 🍅 Tomatoes are rich in lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that may help support heart health, reduce inflammation, and promote healthy cholesterol levels.

Come see what’s growing for yourself at our next Sow Good Saturday! Join us at Baton Roots Community Farm for a day of learning, service, and community. Learn more and register with the link in our bio.
