The artist collective Fallen Fruit continues Eat LACMA -- its yearlong project on food, art, culture and politics -- with the Tomato Hootenanny from noon to 3 p.m. Saturday.

Pick up a tomato seedling plant (arrive early — they’ll go fast), dance a jig with the old-time string band Triple Chicken Foot and participate in a Mortgage Lifter Tomato Workshop with artists Anne Hars and Stephanie Allespach.
