Before we left to travel to the Philippines, we told the boys to harvest the tomatoes and use them so they don't go to waste and keep the rest in the fridge for me.. I would normally make sauce out of the abundant harvest, but they were not ready before we left..
The boys didn't bother , so we lost a lot..But we have some left which I roasted in the oven to make toppings for pizza and to mix with our salads.
We grow a lot of our own veggies like silver beets, bok choy, broccoli and corn and we freeze them..
Do you also grow your own fruits and veggies?..

@JustBhem even if you are only renting an apartment or a place without a garden, you can try to plant in pots..

We also grow pumpkins ;) .. If travel is mostly what's in your mind , it's hard to maintain a garden .. We are also planning to travel more now so we can't attend to a lot of gardening ...

@epiffanie Sometimes I think the travelling is a good excuse for being lousy gardeners.

If they are my boys, I probably turned them into tomatoes myself
But still, that's a nice haul. I tried planting tomato, but failed.

With what you're doing, you're a hundred percent assured that your veggies are organic, Ms. Bess :)

I used to, mostly citrus, mango, malunggay, guava and macadamia nuts then. I have herbs and citrus now. Same thing happened to my garden when I went away. That's a lot of tomatoes!

I am trying to grow some but they keep dying on me.
I think I prefer flowers more.
You must save a lot of money on fruits and veggies.

Yes we grow some vegetables like lady's finger, aubergine, tomatoes, and spinach. It is good to plant veggies at home than buying from outside. It will be pesticide free.
