First Tomato Sprouts Of The Season







Well, spring is really here. See above for the "First Tomato Sprouts Of The Season".
They are a Beefsteak type of tomato from seed I saved in 2003 from one of my home grown tomatoes. I also have several other tomato types and peppers, scallions, and cantelopes that are planted but not yet sprouting.

Tomato Time

Tomato Time!!!



I finally got some good tomatoes out of the garden. Woo Hoo!!!

These are some of the smallest beefsteak tomatoes I've grown. However, they taste just as great as any I've ever grown, so I'm happy.







Home-grown tomatoes usually taste better than store-bought, and this is no exception.



Sweet and tomato-y tasting. Tender as well, not those tough textures from lesser tomatoes.
I was wondering if I'd get any tomatoes at all this year, with all the rain we've had, and not a lot of sunny days. So far, so good. Looks like there are more in the garden just waiting to ripen.
