THey are not in season yet here. Mine are just starting to develop fruit (some of them nice sized, but nothing ripe) and I know the people I sell to have been asking me...how far along they are. Half my crop is Roma and Grape types. I think they are informed well enough that it won't matter in the slightest. Just in case, I am also planning on tackling the issue in our July newsletter. I plan on selling the heck out of them and the other varieties.

I was not even aware that there were GMO tomatoes (I guess I should not be surprise I suppose). Who makes them and what are they called?

Just wondering: Are small farms losing their ability to sell the types
of tomatoes being affected by the salmonella-tomato situation? Does
anyone know if the varieties of tomatoes that are carrying the unusual
strains of salmonella are GMO?

Best wishes to all,
