Tomato Time!

 Mostly, Trish and I grow just flowers in our yard.  But, one thing, beyond flowers, we can’t so without: tomatoes!


For the past weeks our plants have been rewarding us with abundance!

We grow several varieties, both determinate and indeterminate, to keep the season starting early and then lasting over a long time.

The Early Girls and producing multitudes of pound sized fruit; perfect for Caprese salads with fresh mozzarella! A lunch time treat.


The Big Boys are even larger: just the right size for a single slice to more than cover the bread for a great sandwich.  We are also having a wonderful crop of Cherokee Purples, so sweet and tasty.



Then, there are the little babies, about half dozen varieties and colors here.  They make a great snack to just pop in your mouth. Each variety has a different flavor that makes them so interesting.


Not counting these little ones, it looks like we will be picking about two dozen today!  What delicious fun.
