Don't know about you, but I for one did not realize that tomato plants can get HUGE. In the week since this photo was taken this plant grew at least three more inches, and it is not the only one. After consulting with his sister (our farm expert), Nick topped some of the plants yesterday. They will continue to grow, but now they should grow out and not up. We would prefer not to need a ladder to harvest our tomatoes. We do, however, have dozens of green tomatoes happily growing - it's excellent! Mmmm, pasta sauce....
Last night Nick made a delicious salad with basil, summer corn, cherry tomatoes, and our very own bush beans in a vinaigrette. Absolutely fabulous recipe from one of our vegan cookbooks, and one that that we will definitely make again. Tonight's dinner will include our first zucchini, harvested today. It's a tiny little thing.
