A huge number of tomatoes are grown in home gardens in the US every year. Thousands of tons are grown commercially and many of these are actually exported. And yet, tomatoes are not native to the US. They originally grew in South America. Wild tomatoes still grow in South America, but the fruits are tiny and usually smaller than those of cherry tomatoes.
I miss the days of the big gardens, like growing up. We had all the vegetables we ate right in our garden.
I don’t have space for a big garden and wish I did.
I love cherry tomatoes and I have two plants that I am trying to grow this years.
I’m also growing cherry tomatoes this year.
