'Mater Sale: Monday, May 11, 2015

On their way to the library tomato sale, May 11, 2015. Butler Skinner on the left, and Depp's Pink Firefly on the right....and many of their little friends (Black Cherry, Pike County Yellow Beefsteak, Jaune Flammee, Rose Beauty, Purple Bumblebee, Livingston's Beauty, and Dwarf Purple Heart) bringing up the rear.

The tomatoes made the Fish hot peppers ride shotgun....this is the first year we've had peppers for sale, too.
