2015 Tomato and Pepper Harvest

My husband and I love growing tomatoes and peppers in our garden.  This year was no different!

We decided to use the two Topsy Turvy Tomato Trees we had in the garage for our tomatoes and peppers this year.

We planted three tomato plants in each tree.  We planted Roma, Beefsteak, Cherry, and Grape varieties.  We planted three peppers in the one tree which had room – bell pepper and two chili peppers.  (Two of the chili peppers are included in first photo above.)

Bell Pepper almost ready to eat

The bell peppers pictured here are not included in the first photo above.  The tomatoes have been eaten straight off the vine since the first ones got ripe.  My boys love walking outside and grabbing tomatoes to eat.

Our 2016 Garden Plans

We have really enjoyed the ease of harvesting with these two tomato trees.  We have not had problems with slugs this year eating the plants and fruit.  (Slugs are a big deal for gardeners in the Pacific Northwest.)

How do you grow your tomatoes and peppers?
