I painted the two tomato supports today with a nice blue exterior paint. I think I need to do one more coat to be sure we have protected the metal as much as possible from rust. Then we’ll store the supports for use in the nook planter in the spring.
My husband is trying to persuade me to plant tomatoes in the brick planter on the east side of the house next spring. Since we’ll be converted completely to raised bed planters in the main garden for the spring, this is a good idea. I’ll have to dig up my transplanted asparagus, though, to do this. I’m torn, but if we can come up with a wind break for the planter, I’ll probably go with his suggestion, since we NEVER get enough fresh tomatoes.
Only one tomato to harvest today. I have a few more green ones, but I think we’re basically to the end of the season, shortened this year due to the intense heat we’ve been having. If you’re only going to have ONE tomato, isn’t this a beauty?

Yes Linda and I feel sure, that you will get much more next year, when you plant them to be more protected.
