All of our "cherry " tomato bushes were loaded with tiny little green tomatoes that would not have made it through the weather when it turned cold. I decided to clear out the plants to "put the garden to sleep" for the winter, but I couldn't make myself throw out these tiny green pea sized tomatoes. So here is our Fall crop. hehehe
