So Many Tomatoes.....



Pretty much half of the haul from the allotment on one day!


 Just when you think that all the work going into growing tomatoes may just be a bit of a faff - up they all come. Year after year I'm shocked as to how many we end up with on the allotment, so many questions, did I plant enough seeds ? will they ever ripen ? how did I end up with so many again ? 

We planted a number of different varieties this year but without a doubt these three are the very best:

Sunstripe Tomato - these are so good I could barely stop eating them as I was picking them.


Pomodoro Tomato - These plants produce so many tomatoes and they are great for everything, not too wet they are great served with Burrata  or made into tomato sauce.


Tomato Costoluto Fiorentino  -  These took they're time to ripen but they are magnificent tomatoes. Good for absolutely everything, eaten straight from the allotment on a hot day seems best 





Much bigger freezer needed for next year for sure.
