I should probably plant "Black Krim" or "Green Moldovan" next year.


Not long ago I saw Black Krims for sale at Whole Foods. Our regular
grocery now claims to sell some varieties of heirloom tomatoes. They
certainly look like they could be. But I almost never buy "fresh"
tomatoes from the grocery anymore. We eat our fill in the summer and
fall from the garden.

What do you do in the winter?

I will can a few tomatoes and freeze some blanched and peeled.
