Why are Grainger County tomatoes so good?
So, what is it that makes a Grainger County tomato taste so good? Some say the secret's in the soil. “We have a lime-based bedrock here in Grainger County, and it breaks down faster, which turns into limestone, and that limestone actually helps our pH and the pH is actually what helps the flavor," Carver said.
