As usual the first tomatoes to ripen were the yellow cherry varieties, Mirabelle, Sungold and Sundrop. I picked the first almost two weeks ago and they were followed within days by Supersweet. I might have had some black/brown cherry tomatoes and some Isis Candy but I put them in the Boxelder bed and the Damned Doe got to 'em. This week we ate the first small tomatoes, Jaune Flammè, Tigerella and Stupice and a few Black Plum, Brown Berry, Super Snow White and Green Grape. The first Marmande sits on a windowstill, the first Ramapo should probably be brought in before some critter takes a nibble and there will be several Carmello tomatoes this week.
But we're still savoring each taste and making sure we have enough for the next few days. I'm ready for the more-than-I-can-eat harvest to begin...
