Brandywine is first? You must be growing a lot of late varieties {LOL}.

Mine are all still green.

Got some good ones just starting to blush but the only ripe so far was a couple of Wayahead and they were nothing special.

Forgot - I ate 2 Sun Golds this morning.

Other than Silvery Fir Tree and Tidy Treats I have not picked any ripe tomatoes. Most of mine are tiny except a few.

We've been enjoying them for about a month now but I took this pic of some of the first Cherokee Purple.

the Lynnwood, kmicic, black sea man and tarasenko 2 are all ripening like mad in the hot weather we've been having. I'll make the first batch of tomato jam tomorrow.
