Tomatoes!



On Sunday I saw the first local tomatoes of the year. Rich at Kittitas Valley Greenhouse grows consistently tasty, perfect tomatoes, and he's always among the first farmers to have some for sale. He grows several varieties of beefsteaks, as well as some heirlooms. Personally, I'm a big fan of the beefsteak. It may be a hybrid, but it's been bred for flavor, and I can't think of a better reason to mess with the genetics of tomatoes.
