Tomatoes

I had an old timer tell me that when you plant your tomatoes you want to make sure you put manure in the soil, use a consistent watering schedule and plant marigolds around them.  The flowers emit an odor  that bugs don't like and that will keep them off your plants...

I hit the Farmers Market in downtown every Saturday morning. Unfortunately most mornings I don't get there early enough to get my pick of the awesome heirloom tomatoes. This last Saturday was the exception though and you can see my haul in the photo above...
