[Magdalen] The worthless tomato.

[Jay Weigel]

The cherry tomatoes we have been getting have been from our online grocery
and are organic and extremely local, being from a farm just a few miles
down the road in a place charmingly named Keezletown. However, that will be
no longer, as the grocery has, as of last week, ceased deliveries to our
area. *sob* However, we still have plenty of local sources, including (at
least until Labor Day) a guy down at the turnoff from the interstate, who
sells the overrun from his garden on the honor system. Good stuff.
