I am going to have to try some of those San Marzano next year. Corn - I love it all, but especially sweet white corn.

Yeah, I’m also a big fan of sweet white corn. And I still have 5lbs. of my Silver Queen crop from last year in my freezer.

This is my first year to try the Marzanoes. I got them from a local grower who said chefs in the area took just about his entire crop of starters and have already made commitments for alot of plants next year, too. My Marzanoes are about 4’ high and have fruit but nothing has ripened yet. Anyway, in the past, I haven’t had good luck growing plum tomatoes but it does tend to be my favorite tomato to buy in the market. And, wow, getting things organized the other day in my garden, I have empty containers great for tomato plants so maybe I’ll visit the grower Saturday to see if he has any more Marzanoes.

That’s a good plan. If the local chefs like that variety, then I’m definitely gonna have to try some.
