I picked 4 ripe tomatoes off my Early Girl plants this morning. They aren't all that pretty, but I'm sure they will be tasty. They are the first full-sized tomatoes of the year. The first ones always taste much better than store-bought, even if they aren't perfect.

There are a couple of Jet Star tomatoes that are also showing some blush. Sweet Million and Sungold cherries are both in full production. Sophie's Choice have been disappointing...not many tomatoes showing and none at all ripening--it was supposed to be my earliest variety! The other early variety I have is Bush Beefsteak. It has quite a bit of fruit, but nothing turning on it, either.
