We’re really happy with the greenhouse. Next year we’ll have a lot more tomatoes. There’s no use keeping a half full greenhouse warm but I do need to save room for my bedding plants for the summer garden.
Tomatoes
It’s hard to tell but that’s a pretty big tomato. It’s actually bigger than any I produced this year in the garden.

Here’s one getting ripe!
Mostly we get the small cherry tomatoes and whatever these pepper looking tomatoes are.

I love those! I’m going to have to do a bit of research and find out what they are. I saved all the little label sticks and of course, that one is nowhere to be found.
Every day I get a handful of small tomatoes and about once every 10 days I get a big tomato.

We’re still buying tomatoes but heck, we’re buying eggs too! 🙁
Sherrill says
I’ve never seen long skinny tomatoes like that..do they taste like a regular tomato? And wait, HOW many chickens do you have and you’re still buying eggs?!!! Maybe they slow down in the winter (I know nothing about chickens).

Your buying eggs! I have 6 hens laying, and I’m giving eggs away. How old are those birds. I’m thinking SOUP!
JudyL says
They’re not old. Maybe 1-1/2 years. These are Dominiques and they don’t lay as much as some breeds and Dominiques slack off during the winter so this is normal for htem.. With four full size hens, I’m getting about 9-10 eggs per week and we use about 3 dozen eggs per week.
These girls aren’t nearly ready for soup yet.
