It is amazing how quickly the tomatoes get out of control. lol. Your garden has really filled in and I am sure you are doing your best to keep up with the produce. 🤪

Nah. I'm lazy. Hey, my sauerkraut never started fermenting after four days in the fridge, and into the compost it went. Live and learn! I finally used my pressure canner, for two pints of chicken. One didn't seal, and into my stomach it went! Today I'm trying my hand at pressure canned carrots.

I found blight on the tomatoes yesterday, so I'm going to buy a case of tomatoes to can, and only plant one brandywine in a bag next year. Of course I didn't trim any lower branches, or mulch, or water carefully. Another few lessons learned. I won't miss having to tend tomatoes, and the sun I will get on my wildflower bed will be fabulous. Onward!
