I love that part of summer when you head out to the vegetable garden and seemingly overnight all the plants have grown to double in size, and also have a bud of something starting to grow. It always feels like I’ve just accomplished something big. And even better is finding your first tomato, well hidden amongst all those leaves, that is ready to pick. In July no less! Picking tomatoes in July in New Hampshire is, well, really wonderful. So is not having the plants eaten by the deer!
My husband is waiting for the tomatoes to ripen. Its the 3rd week in July and they are stiil green in Michigan. Have a wonderful harvest!
