Question

My tomato season here in Florida is winding down, and I will be pulling up the plants within the next week. Over two months, I have harvested somewhere around pounds of black heirloom tomatoes from 13 bushes. I've eaten many BLT sandwiches, other sandwiches with one slice of tomato covering the entire sandwich, made salads, salsa and tomato sauce, cooked other dishes with tomatoes, sold a bunch, and have given tomatoes to all the neighbors, friends and to my doctor. My tomato season is enjoyable time for all of us, my friends, neighbors, and customers. Now on to my summer crop -- white acre peas.

Answer 1

Your season is ending and ours is just beginning here in western Oregon. Found my first 1" diameter tomatoes yesterday. Some years, we don't pick our heritage varieties until mid-September or early October.

Answer 2

My season is just coming into production, had my first one last night when I got home. Need to move them under the trees now that summer has started to extend the growing season.

Answer 3

We used to stalk the neighbors with drive by dropping off of paper bags filled with produce during the Summer growing season.
As the youngest I was often elected to be the sneak.

It was fun.

I need a neighbor who does that now! lol

Answer 4

Which black heirlooms did you grow? My fav!

Answer 5

I love tomatoes!

Answer 6

WE still have quite a wait up here. Congrats on your crop.
