Tomatoes

The day before we left for vacation I harvested the last of the tomatoes from the sunroom.


Even thought the plants looked a little sad, they still had quite a few plump, juicy tomatoes on them.


Connie was house sitting for us while we were gone and she got tired of looking at the dead foliage, so she did us both a favor and cleaned it all up.  Now it's time to thumb through those delicious seed catalogs and start planning to do it all over again!

    Is hydrophonic(?) gardening an option of interest in the Sitka area?

    I personally know one couple that dabbled in it last year, but that doesn't mean that there aren't more. I could never do it...I LOVE dirt!
