Mother's Day is May 11th!
"Tomatoes for the Table" makes a unique gift.
Unearthed from our mothers' and grandmothers'
recipe boxes, travel journals, and oral histories
comes a collection of recipes putting tomatoes -
that star of Virginia gardens - front and center.

​Our contributors have tested, tasted, edited,
and shared their favorites. From jams, chutneys,
and pickles to sauces, soups, salads, and sides.
You will find familiar and not so familiar recipes
to taste and enjoy. Over 100 recipes in this
beautifully illustrated cookbook.
For more information go to Dolley's Market.
Can't wait? Need it now? Tomatoes for the Table is sold locally in Gordonsville at The Laurie Holladay Shop 
​and in Barboursville at Exchange Cafe.
