Ripe tomatoes


 I spotted this tomato plant with lots of ripe cherry tomatoes while walking by someone's front yard.  You may be able to see some in the photo above.  I wondered if the owners would pick them.  On my way back past the property I saw a young man walking in the yard.  An older woman was sitting on the front porch.  I pointed out the ripe cherry tomatoes to the young man and suggested he could pick them.  I hope he did.

  1. You may have encouraged them to enjoy the harvest right from their garden
