Trying a different strategy with the ‘maters this year. Rather than growing one crop through the blazing, humid summer we’re going to try two crops: one in the spring and another in the fall. We do intend to try some climate specific tomatoes during the summer months to test their hardiness but for the sake of harvest, we’d like more than just one or two tomatoes :))
