These are two of the three trays of tomatoes that need to be canned.  Aren’t they beautiful?  They are all heirloom tomatoes.  The smaller ones are a paste type tomato, good for canning, and the big yellow ones are pineapple tomatoes.  The pineapple tomatoes are yellow on top and red on the bottom.  The big red ones are some kind of heirloom, whose name I have forgotten, and the pinkish ones are Brandywine pink.  I should start over with fresh seeds next year, so I can be more precise with the names of them.  If it really matters….

 

I picked 40 tomatoes on Tuesday, and we spent the afternoon blanching and canning them.  It was so much fun.  We love working as a team in the kitchen.  

 

 

HAPPY GARDENING!!!
