      Desperately try to foist them on friends, family, coworkers, neighbors, passing dog walkers, the mailman… anybody who’d take some 😆

      Beyond that, we’d eat tomato based meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and we canned dozens of pints of salsa and sauce (that we’re still eating!).

        What my family did was make liters and liters of tomato sauce and then freeze them, so for the rest of the year we had really good tomato sauce.

        Well then ur neighbors are so lucky because those look really good. I imagine they taste far better than any you can find at the store

          Oh they certainly do, once you’ve had homegrown, store bought will forever taste bland. And there’s such crazy variety, some are intensely sweet, others tart or savory.
