I gave away half of the San Marziano plants but still had a bumper crop that was shared ( without permission) with my local woodchuck. Tore netting and tipped over buckets on deck after climbing stairs. Red squirrel invited friends to partake of yellow cherry SunGold tomatoes in fenced garden. My favorite too. One morning I counted 24 cherry tomato skins on my deck. Apparently he (she?) and friends would prefer tomatoes without skins and partied on my deck too. I plan to try a few of your tomato seeds.

I will probably put off sowing my short season toms until end of march but I've already started my marmandes, as they barely made it last year when I sowed them too late. Very exciting to be getting ready for the season. Can't wait to see everyone's gardens progress through the year. 💕
