Even more tomatoes
Today DH & I picked 103 pounds of tomatoes, mostly Viva Italia. Looks
like I will be busy canning for a while. That makes 287 pounds so far this season. And the season is not over. -- USA North Carolina Foothills USDA Zone 7a To find your extension office http://www.csrees.usda.gov/Extension/index.html |

That came to mind as I imagined carting 103 pounds of anything home from a shopping trip. Mike |

That came to mind as I imagined carting 103 pounds of anything home from a shopping trip. I was amused to note that my nearly worthless potato patch (as considered in terms of what a normal bag of potatoes I would actually buy goes for) looked much better fiscally if compared to "local organic new potatoes" that I would be unlikely to buy. Tomatoes finally coming on line here. Went to all-cherry some years back, and remain happy with that choice (when they split, they are usually ripe and still edible, and when one is bad, it's not the tragedy that a 2lb tomato is when you have to toss it.) -- Cats, coffee, chocolate...vices to live by Please don't feed the trolls. Killfile and ignore them so they will go away. |

Where are you located? I'm having a lousy year, I'm in Massachusetts. My Sun Golds just started to ripen a week ago, I usually start getting Sun Golds in min July and by mid August I usually have thousands of them. This year I'm worried that I won't have enough to make sauce. |
