I had about that many back around 2002.  I made stewed tomatoes, paste, 
spaghetti sauce, pizza sauce, salsa, juice, and dried some.  Of course, 
I also gave away some tomatoes.  It lasted just over a year.  Of course, 
back then I had teenagers at home.  It is the ONLY thing I have ever 
grown and canned that served me a year.  (well, I should add frozen 
squash to the list)Usually, I can't grow enough, or had have weather 
issues or something similar.  Even after a decade on this ground, I 
still haven't figured out how to grow enough beans, spinach, broccoli, 
carrots, raddishes, etc. but I am working on it.
