| Newton MA News and Politics BlogRemember the story back in 2012 about the Newton resident who was growing upside down tomatoes in his front lawn only to be told by the city’s inflectional services that this was illegal he needed to remove them?

The story was, if I’m not mistaken, front page news in the Globe and breathlessly covered by all the local TV stations.

Well, it turns out, the tomato grower was Eli Katzoff, who is now running for mayor (and naturally he made a video about it).
