Late summer tomato planting

Can you still plant tomatoes? Sure! With the heat this hot and I know it will last for several more months, I am looking forward to tomatoes for quite some time. I have grown for late planting some early(quick) ripening tomatoes. They ripen in 40-60 days instead of 80-90 like some of the other heirlooms. We have Siberian, John Baer, Stupice, Chalk's Early Jewel, and Czech's Bush. We will be at the Homegrown Alabama Farmer's market this Thursday the 28th from 3-6. The market is held at the Canterbury Episcopal Chapel lawn, 812 5th Avenue in Tuscaloosa on the University of Alabama campus. Come by and say hi!

some of the early ripening tomatoes!
