Tomatoes

After we moved the garden bed in August, I planted a heap of seeds, most of which, didn't bother growing at all. But, luckily, a whole heap of unintentionally planted seeds did. Mostly tomatoes. There were some late season snow peas that decided to make an appearance too, but given the heat, they died off a lot sooner. 


The tomatoes however, have been going strong, despite my neglect of them; I didn't bother to try to stake any of them up at all really. The lucky plants at the back used the fence for support, but everything else just grew on top of whatever was next to it.


Rachel is ever helpful in the garden, always the first to suggest she jump into the actual garden bed to reach the ones at the back.


So many delicious red tomatoes. We lost maybe a quarter to bugs, but the rest have been so fantastic. Rachel took a box to kindy for show and share, and it came back empty. Satisfaction right there.
