Eating locallyAugust 6, 2008 11:35 pm
I planted ciltantro, tomatoes, bell pepper and cucumber and got everything but the cilantro. Now with the recent heat wave (and my neglect), my plants have died. But I have a memory of what they gave me two weeks ago.
Before they died my tomato plant was quite productive as was my bell pepper. The cucumber plant was a bit like a problem child, but gave me two cucumbers.
My cucumbers are problem children too! And SOMETHING is eating my tomatoes. Whole. Just as soon as one is almost ripe, it disappears. My peppers, however, are abundant. Now, what should I do with them you of the organic, local food delivery business someday soon skillz?

A tomato thief huh? I would question the kids…as many of the green moms are noticing kids tend to devour fresh, non-chemically enhanced veggies.
Or, you could just make fried green tomatoes and enjoy them.

Or what about one of those fence things that also offer support for the tomatoes?
