Why ???? 😒 this way you know the origins of your veggies! If you go to the Piggly wigglys you will have all kinds of stuff sprayed on it. If you get it from the Amish, you never know if they emptied their chamber pot into the garden or not. I also know for a fact some buy from commercial growers and resell to you. Tell Sugar Britches I am really proud of her! Two things. First it is good for the soul and body to garden second is her new deal aggravates you so much!😁 tjm, Daryk Campbell Sr, Greasy B and 4 others 4 3 "We have met the enemy and it is us", Pogo If you compete with your fellow anglers, you become their competitor, If you help them you become their friend" Lefty Kreh " Never display your knowledge, you only share it" Lefty Kreh "Eat more bass and there will be more room for walleye to grow!"

We pulled in and saw all the storage boxes behind his tent awning. We just pulled back out. Terrierman, Daryk Campbell Sr and BilletHead 2 1
tjm Posted June 1 Posted June 1 You simply can not buy homegrown tomatoes. Not nowhere. They by definition must be grown at home. To think otherwise is obtuse. You might be given tomatoes that were homegrown by a friend or neighbor, but if they are for sale they are commercially grown. $$= commerce. I love tomatoes but I won't the ones from a store, grown in Asia or South America with chemicals that are illegal here, picked green and chemically reddened at the destination before sale, so that they look ripe. Don't usually eat them at restaurants either, the taste is just wrong. That is why they invented "salad dressing"; to cover up the taste of imported veggies. BilletHead 1

The burger joint up the road always throws a slice or two of nasty pithy white tomato on their sandwiches 🙄. I mean seriously, if that's all you can get.....then just say "Sorry, we're out of tomatoes". tjm and Terrierman 2
