My Tomato

I grew up with a smallish garden that my parents lived on year after year. I have missed those vegetables for almost twenty years now.

I have tried many times growing tomatoes. This year I have finally tasted one.

This is my little one. Tasted just like it came from my parents garden. It was yummy.

Trying something different can be a good thing right? I think this year it will be a tomato.

Blessings!

Tomatoes, Part One



Tomatoes. I grew up with 3 or 4 rows of tomatoes (my parents garden). I hated picking them, helping to process them for canning…anything to do with them.

So, after 20 years of buying canned tomatoes, and after hearing from friends the benefits of growing them in pots….have decided to grow two of my own.

Hopefully, with the right tending…I will have plenty of tomatoes for a salad or two…and maybe enough to can several batches.

Now, to find a blog or two about canning!
