Some of the tomatoes were either already ripe, or had at least started to ripen,
Some were the "striped" heritage tomatoes bought by the roadside near Kent City Michigan (I got both red and yellow varieties),
Some were totally green and had not even started to ripen yet. Anyone have a good pickled green tomato recipe? I have at least 1/4 bushel of these.
I had four varieties of pepper. The black ones are "Kaleidoscope", evidently the red and yellow plants of this variety are harder to germinate because my germination rate was low, and the only peppers I got were the black ones. Also had a green bell, a yellow sweet banana pepper, and some peppers that were advertised as "jalapeno" at the local flea market but I suspect are "cherry bombs".
These gourds were volunteers this year. I don't know what to do with them except to use them for decorating. They are pretty.
