I can’t believe it’s almost mid-November and we just ate caprese salad with dinner using tomatoes and basil from our (mid-Atlantic) garden.
Dh pulled the tomato plants weeks ago, but there were still some green tomatoes on them so I put them in the sun on a window sill. We still have one basil plant outside, brought one that’s in a pot inside, and froze the rest. I noticed the tomatoes have finally ripened, so bought some mozzarella and used some of the basil from the plant outside since it is still thriving. I think by next week we will need to remove the rest of its leaves.
This is highly unusual for our zone, but I’m not complaining! We never have produce this late in the season. Still have a cucumber and a few more tomatoes to eat!
