Maverickpro201 Posted October 1, 2022 Posted October 1, 2022 I am up to my waist in tomatoes. I have just recently canned a bunch, made a double batch of Chow Chow, will be giving some to friends, as I have 18 quarts. And still have a bunch of green tomatoes. I usually or in the past have taken them, wrapped in newspaper and put in freezer. A friend said he takes them and wraps them in newspaper and puts them on the shelve in the basement. Do they keep well, this way? Any other suggestions on storing them.
Dutch Posted October 2, 2022 Posted October 2, 2022 I’ve put them on a shelf in the garage and had tomatoes until Thanksgiving. Maverickpro201 1

Maverickpro201 Posted October 3, 2022 Author Posted October 3, 2022 Did you wrap them in newspaper or just store them in the garage? I have 2 windows in the garage so would the light bother them to ripen to fast?
