We are tomato fanatics — growing more than 50 varieties of cherry, heirloom, beefsteak, and sauce tomatoes here on the East End of Long Island. From the first tender plants we “coddle” under row cover in April to chasing that last tomato harvest on November 1st, we’re obsessed with flavor, variety, and the joy of sharing tomatoes with our CSA members and market customers.In this video, we take you behind the scenes on the farm to talk about: • 🌱 Why we risk planting early • 🍒 Why Sun Golds always win the taste tests • 🌈 The difference between hybrids, open-pollinated, and heirlooms • 🍅 How to pick (and store) the perfect tomato • 🌞 Our favorite varieties, from Striped Germans to Sunrise Sauce • 🌿 Tomato’s cousin: the husk cherryIf you love tomatoes (and maybe want to nerd out on flavor, farming techniques, and farmer’s market secrets), this video is for you!
