First Harvest
If a thief doesn't get it, I should be harvesting the first vine ripened tomato tomorrow. The variety is called Big Beef, and it's bearing faster than the old reliable Early Girl. I just hope it tastes as good as it looks.
Lots of small tomatoes and buds, so I hope we have a good crop this year. Last year, the plants wouldn't set fruit early in the year and then the pests got to them.
A volunteer melon of some kind has also set fruit and is growing quickly. It climbed a tomato vine, so I don't know if the melon will continue to hang there, or if it will drag the tomato vine down after it gets heavier.

Our tomatoes are just setting blooms! LOL Congratulations on your harvest!
We've had a few Cherry Tomatoes off ours already. Didn't plant any large breed this year.
Congrads, nothing like vine ripe.
I just walked in with some Peaches off our Dwarf Tree though.
