until mid August. We only planted one early girl and one roma this year because we do need to conserve water here and we may be moving before the season is over. Just our luck that one early girl plant has over 50 tomatoes on it. The roma looks good, too.

We also freeze lots of them and use them all winter and spring. There's usually only a small window of time when we buy tomatoes.
