This is what "high tide" looks like. What a harvest!

My wife now has a part time job just processing all the tomatoes. You name it, she's making it. She spent most of the day filling up 6 quart jars of tomatoes.

I showed my wife the harvested Oaxacan Pink and she believes for now there's a difference between the labeled Oaxacan Pink and Oaxacan Jewel. We'll see.

There are so many good looking tomatoes in today's batch I don't even know where to begin.

Maturing tomatoes include Nebraska Wedding and a yellowing tomato I have yet to identify.

We've now harvested over 1000 SunGold tomatoes this year (1004) and over 400 Husky Cherry Red(1) tomatoes (409). Also, we've harvested over 1000 tomatoes from the front yard in July (1021) and over 3000 overall for the year (3186).
