My bet is that this is a community garden of some sort.
Tomatoes are annuals. They die off every year. So if you liked a tomato from last year, and didn’t keep any of its seeds, and you want that same tomato next summer, you need to remember what you put in the ground.
They are different for what you’re doing with them. If you’re eating them fresh, you probably want sweet cherry tomatoes or yellow bell tomatoes. If you want them for sandwiches, you might go with a beefsteak tomato because the shape and size make the slices perfect. If you’re canning them for sauce, you’ll want romas because they have less juice in them, meaning you can shave off a good chuck of time to get the sauce to thicken. And as others have said, the flavors are different as well.
They were red and round, the leaves were green or were they blue? No, green for sure. You have to remember me, I was wearing the same hat last year! C’mon!
This reminds me.the first time I went to NY. I was young and didn’t understand why americans were “more captalist” than us since we also had industries and stores… then I went into the M&Ms store and all made sense
The first time I can remember feeling old was when I was walking home behind a couple of kids and one said to the other in a cautionary tone that there was a “big ol’ guy” (or words to that effect) behind them. I guess I seemed menacing in some way? I was in my early twenties, which means those kids are older now than I was then.
