This is a journal of my vegetable gardens. Skippy was my first dog and he thought the garden was his, even though I did all the work. Now Suzie and Charley follow in his footsteps. We're located near Boston (USDA zone 6A). I have a community plot, a backyard vegetable garden, fruit trees, berry bushes, chickens, and bees. I use sustainable organic methods and do my best to grow all of my family's vegetables myself.

giant belgium tomatoes
A real prize! Two Giant Belgium tomatoes are ripe on the vine. Looks like this plant will only produce 3 or 4 fruits this year. They are bigger than last year's and very meaty and sweet.
Great, am trying to source the Kalabash over here. Looked at Johnny's seeds terrific and informative website but the import details although necessary I know, but mind blowing. I will look this Giant Belgium up too in UK suppliers.
On the moon front, if you have a clear sky there this evening you are in for a treat, the moon rose over my garden around an hour ago (9.10 p.m.)and although waning it is bright in a star filled sky, one of the best star filled skies this Summer. Marian (LondonUK)

This tomato looks amazing! Great job at capturing it's beauty. I have been busy harvesting and canning my tomatoes. Please stop by and take a look at all the work we have done this season.

Your Giant Belgium are beautiful. Doesn't look like the late blight did much damage?

Salix, The blight hasn't found this one Giant Belgium plant yet. It did kill a couple others early this year.
Thanks for the Meme award. I'll do a revealing post soon.
