Two tomato plans have yellowed and died before producing ripe fruit. Lemon Boy, Sungold, Early Girl are only ones left, are being knocked over an eaten by hungry animals as everything else dead from drought. No tomatoes for you.

First non-cherry tomato harvested today: Early Girl variety. Basil watches this activity with trepidation.

Status: Swimming in a lake. Tomatoes: First tomatoes harvested and consumed on the spot. Impression: Mighty tasty.
