Then with the lid off the pot boil the tomatoes slowly to boil down some of the liquid. Then freeze them.

That little pen is built very sturdy with no openings and we used the chicken wire with the smallest holes...would that be 1"? I wish now we had used woven wire like for rabbit cages. Darn snakes! There are a couple of holes that go under the chicken house, probably made by a rat. Would a snake use that? The tomatoes...it is strange how watery these are. We started off with too much rain in the spring and now it is too dry. The tomatoes have no taste! Thanks!

Hard to just put a smile on your face and carry on but I guess that's what one has to do. Did you have a nice time with the company on the weekend? I hope they appreciated the work you put into preparing for them. I do wonder why the tomatoes are watery. One of those gardening mysteries that never get solved. What do you normally do with all the tomatoes? Can them? Granny Marigoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15858237999602347848noreply@blogger.com
