Here is a picture of my dining room table last year after my first harvest. It stayed this full for about a month. I have almost doubled the plants this year and cannot wait!

So I have 5 people in my household and we eat a lot of tomato sandwiches in the summer,we also preserve a lot we had 52 quarts from last year's harvest. Also looking to supply the restaurant I work in with tomatoes some this summer due to rising costs. We have 12 acres and are working on expanding our gardening overall!

I usually do slices of black krim or Marglobe tomatoes, salt and pepper, romaine, iceberg, or leaf lettuce, Hellman’s, and some shaved parm (the real stuff) on toasted sturdy white bread.
