Monarch Butterfly Catepillars

We have these very Beautiful, very endangered Catepillars feeding on our milkweed plants.   I plan on "seed bombing" these seeds in the fall.  "Seed bombing" is when you mix flower seeds with mud & roll them into a ball.  You let the ball dry & throw them anywhere you would like to see flowers...empty lots, abandoned fields, the side of the road, etc.  annsgreengarden@gmail.com

Second harvest from twelve plants

I have 22 heirloom tomato plants on my property and just picked 13 pounds this Saturday.  This mix includes Cherokee Purple, Indigo Apple, Costoluto Genovese, Green Zebra, Marvel Stripe, San Marzano and Tommy Toe.

Indigo Apple - First pick of 2014

The answer to your question is yes, it does taste as good as it looks!!  Very sweet and meaty.  A new family favorite!! 

Cherokee Purple - first pick of 2014

This is the first group of Cherokee Purple tomatoes for the 2014 growing season.  I unfortunately forgot how utterly delicious this tomato is.  This beautiful heirloom has a Merlot colored inside with a smoky taste that will blow-your-mind.  And yes, smoky.  Seriously, if you love the taste of store bought tomatoes, do not ever eat a Cherokee Purple, lol!  You will be ruined for life!!!

Happy Easter from Tomatoland!!!!
