Early snow here in MA, and I did not get all the crop in since it rained the two days before it and I thought the weather forecast of a few days ago would hold and maybe we could make it till Sat. But it got colder and with more snow came, covering the remaining toms and multitudes of yellow flowers - acting like they lives in the South. below.

So I went out and gathered a few dozen I found under the snow, like these below.

But thanks be to God for literally hundreds of tomatoes, despite challenges.

Here is a quick condensed compilation of the season, from prep to planting to produce to blight to substantial recovery to the end of the season and final harvest:

I was also hoping for more frost free days but yesterday here on the coast south of Boston, we got a coating of snow so today I picked a couple of red tomatoes from my 4x4' garden and brought them in for food. The end of the season for me. -Tom

Great pictures. Wo snow! That was quite a shot. Looks like you salvaged some nice tomatoes though, they should ripen.
