We did container tomatoes this year, the first time we’ve grown veggies since moving three summers ago. And so far so good, though this morning the hubs discovered worms, ugh. Got rid of them, and will be watching to make sure no more slip into the plants. We have two of this bush type, and one that’s a vine with bite-size fruits. And the one tomato that has already ripened was delicious in my everything bagel ham & cheese sammie! I can eat fresh from the garden tomatoes like candy, but it’s a rare tomato from the store that tempts me. Farmers market, sure. They’re much the same as what we can grow ourselves, but no tomato tastes as good as one picked from the garden!
