I love tomatoes. Even when they look like this:

Which is why I was so excited when I saw this in the garden this morning (June 4, 2021).

This is a variety from Burpee called “Steak Sandwich.” I started three of this variety, one of “Jubilee” and one of “Cherokee Purple” on March 15, and I transplanted them into the garden in mid-May. Three are in grow bags and 2 are in the raised beds. At this rate, I might have a ripe tomato or two by the Fourth of July!
