Cherry and grape type tomatoes that are growing on vines/bushes ranging from about 2 feet tall to over 6 feet tall. Most of these types will bear anywhere from 4 to 12 fruits in a single branch lobe. Cherry and grape type tomatoes are much larger producers compared to regular tomatoes. I could expect up to a bushel of small tomatoes from a single 6 foot tall plant. They produce all summer, so you will have plenty most of the time. Once really hot weather kicks in during the day, and cools down at night, the smaller type tomatoes tend to split. The back of my garden had only 6 plants, and I was giving away gallon bags of the tomatoes all through the summer. I also grew some white and yellow varieties which also had way too many to deal with once they started to set more fruits. If your wanting to can them, cherry tomatoes don't do as well as a plum type, due to the extra liquid cherry types contain. They are great in salads and as a fresh salsa, provided there are some dried ingredients that will soak up the excess liquids.

I'm with Ken. Cherry tomatoes are incredibly prolific. We found that one plant was more than sufficient for our needs and that of the entire neighborhood.

I have not had much luck either coming up with many ways to use them beyond fresh use. I have dried them. There's a lot of loss and what you're left with is mainly skin, but the flavor is good and they're fun for snacking. I do have one French recipe for a pickled cherry tomato.

I planted an indeterminate cherry tomato this past summer that grew to over 6 feet tall and was loaded with tomatos all summer and fall. I gave gobs away and my friend dried some to enter in the fair. She won a blue ribbon.

I agree, cherry tomatoes are incredibly prolific and here, usually the first to ripen.

I had 4 SunGold plants last year and picked bowls full every time I went to the farm, at least twice weekly. There were still green ones on the vine when frost hit.

I have a huge plastic bowl, probably a gallon, and could pick it full every picking from those 4 plants, at least twice a week for over a month.
