I haven’t been gardening this year, but yesterday when cutting lambsquarters to feed the chickens, I found a volunteer tomato plant that is doing surprisingly well. It was pretty much smothered by the weeds around it, and yet it still managed to flower at some point. It has a little green tomato hanging from it.

Hopefully now that it has more sunlight it’ll put out some more of them. Judging from the stripes it’s a Black Vernissage. They can be pretty aggressive about volunteering.
