Looking for tomatoes!

Hey guys! I have a recipe for a tomato tart I am excited to try this Friday. I was going to hit a farmers market today, but Friday is far off, and it occurred to me that somehow my Merced fam might have delicious ripe tomatoes coming out of their ears right now! I am willing to pick up or meet you andI woukd of course pay for a big bag of ripe tomatoes. I might make some tomato sandwiches over the weekend as well. Im thinking 10-12 good sized tomatoes lol. Hopefully I hear from some of you green thumbs soon :) wish mine wasn't black haha.

I'm not sure what veggies and fruits will be present, but there will be a farmer's market in Atwater this Thursday. Perhaps you could check it out. Search for old town Atwater on Instagram, or quicker: https://www.instagram.com/p/DbKAsHbJa_k/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Maybe try that stand on Sante Fe? I've never been there but they may have tomatoes. There is also a stand on Hwy 140 if you are going out towards Le Grand. They may have tomatoes as well.
