If you want to grow tomatoes in the ground, till it first. I would add manure and sand while tilling. The sand is for water retention. Then plant your plant or seed. Use a sunny location for good results. Once the plants start to grow, put a tomato cage on top of it. Water regularly.
Make sure you have healthy soil, not just the dirt that was under the grass. If nothing else, dig a hole much larger in depth and width. You want to put about a third of the plant in the soil, so adjust the depth for that and a little more. Put in good potting soil at least to fill the hole and that will give the plant a good start for the roots to grow in nutritious soil. Tomatoes like somewhat acidic soil, mix in a bit of coffee grounds, and also need extra calcium, whiz some egg shells in the blender until they are real fine to get the calcium into the soil quicker.
