First real harvest of the season, and a relatively small one, but given the trials of this summer especially welcome.
These arrived a couple weeks later than 2010. Ate the small ones tonight for supper with torn lemon basil. BLTs tomorrow.
As a line cook I worked with many years ago once said: It ain't love, but it ain't bad.

I know how you feel... I just picked my first tomato this week... now they are coming fast!
More the merrier, though since many plants haven't set much fruit, I don't foresee a record harvest ahead. Maybe the more moderate temps now will kick up production.
Yay! I'm glad that your toms are starting to finally produce :)
Thanks, Ben. I've pretty much decided it was the extreme heat that compromised so many plants.
Lookin good! I've also just enjoyed the first of my rooftop tomatoes grown in East Village.
Well done, RHill. Send us a photo if you get the chance.
This is from your green roof garden? It looks like your garden is well-maintained. The fruits are proof of that! It's great to have your own garden, especially when it bears healthy fruits and vegetables for you. :)
