When life gives you tomatoes...

Last year it looked like this - (big thanks to Geoff for helping with the gravel)

Brent Bardo and his green thumb was the mastermind behind the garden this year. Double digging, starts from Wasatch Community Garden, arranged planting, careful watering, pruning, and cages.

Brent got a little...no, maybe a lot, carried away with the number of tomatoes he planted. I didn't even know that many varieties of tomatoes existed. And I had no idea plants got that tall.

We picked about a hundred tomatoes this weekend...and turned it into this

And this ...

(Marinara Sauce)

And this.

(Tomato Basil Soup)

Now all I need is an extra freezer to store it and we'll be enjoying the garden all winter!

(a quick shout out to Brent Bardo who's biking across the US right now. I hear he's in the middle of colorado in a place called 'Hoosier Pass.' )
