Fail.

Are the vines broken? If not, the green tomatoes will continue to grow/ripen… But frost is coming soon!
Sounds like it's time for fried green tomatoes!! YUMMMMMMM
Green tomato chutney!!
Barb, I stood everything back up to see what happens. But it's been below 60 every day since it blew down. No new redness yet. (And I think it might be showing the first signs of blight, too.)
Kelly and Ryan, those are both recipes for when you've already eaten so many fresh, ripe tomatoes that you're looking for something else to do with them. I'm nowhere close to that yet.
