My family is from Leamington and my grandfather laments to this day about how sad it is that the acres upon acres of glass and plastic have been plopped on top of the most fertile land in Canada. The Leamington area has seriously mild and fair weather compared to the rest of Canada and a sizeable chunk of its farmland comes from drained marshes. Fresh water is limitless as well (Lake Erie). That combo is killer and is the reason Leamington became the tomato capital of North America. Leamington was so successful in this that Heinz dropped a large factory directly in the heart of the city and bought up the majority of the area's tomato supply. Good on the farmers for making the most of their acreages but it's sad to see land you don't find just anywhere trapped beneath glass.
I should also add that outdoor tomatoes are still so much tastier. You could test the same type of plant grown inside and outside, just meters apart, and know immediately which one is which.
