Due to lack of sun in my backyard, I'm forced to plant some of my tomato bushes in the front yard. I know in Europe they have beautiful little kitchen gardens in their front yards. So, in order to plant a few more varieties, I planted two tomato bushes and a couple of green bean plants amongst the landscaping, and I don't think they are too noticeable. Of course, when the fruit turns red, the neighbors may wonder what kind of flower it is! :-)

I don't grow tomatoes, but I have corn in the front flower bed!!!
I would love to see a picture of your front yard. I bet it looks really cool as the corn grows tall.
My tomatoes grow in pots on my front 'veranda'! smile.. I still have to cover them with tulle to keep the birds from sampling each and every tomato.

Last year, I grew tomatoes in big clay pots on my front porch! It faces west and south and they loved it there.
You're not alone. I have my tomato patch in the front yard, too. And for the same reason. No sun anywhere else.
We just planted tomato plants (and cucumbers) in our front yard. I think they look great!
To everyone...I'm glad to hear there are some other unorthodox gardeners out there. I no longer feel sooooo alone :-)
