Farmer's Market Tomato Price per lb.

Who doesn't just love a fresh homegrown tomato? People even write songs about them, we found one on YouTube - we thought you might like it too. Here are the lyrics. Click below.

Ain't nothin' in the world that I like better

Than bacon & lettuce homegrown tomatoes

Up in the mornin' out in the garden

Get you a ripe one don't get a hard one

Plant 'em in the spring eat 'em in the summer

All winter without 'em's a culinary bummer

I forget all about the sweatin' diggin'

Every time I go out and pick me a big one

 

Homegrown tomatoes homegrown tomatoes

Wha'd life be without homegrown tomatoes

Only two things money can't buy

That's true love and homegrown tomatoes

 

I've been out to eat and that's for sure

But it's nothin' a homegrown tomato won't cure

Put 'em in a salad put 'em in a stew

You can make your very own tomato juice

Eat 'em with eggs eat 'em with gravy

Eat 'em with beans pinto or navy

Put 'em on the side put 'em in the middle

Put a homegrown tomato on a hotcake griddle

 

If I'ms to change this life that I lead

I'd be Johnny tomato seed

Cause I know what this country needs

Homegrown tomatoes in every yard you see

When I die don't bury me In a box in a cemetery

Out in the garden would be much better

I could be pushin' up homegrown tomatoes

Recipe for Bacon, Lettuce, and Tomato Sandwich (BLT)

  • 4 slices bacon

Step 1

Cook the bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.

Step 2

Arrange the cooked bacon, lettuce, and tomato slices on one slice of bread. Spread one side of the remaining bread slice with the mayonnaise. Bring the two pieces together to make a sandwich.
