Just email me if you want to order directly. This week orders are due by friday at noon.

From Next Step Produce:

TOMATO SALE !!! : 3lbs or more @ $2.70/lb; 6lbs or more @ $2.40/lb; 25lb box @ $25/1.00/lb !!!

Now come on people! That is quite a deal. Tiss the season to make your own sauce, can it, freeze it for the winter. You can make your own ketchup or simply freeze whole blanched peeled tomatoes! Don't buy the canned stuff from who knows where!

Last week I made delish seasoned pasta sauce for year round meals and also tried my hand at homemade BBQ sauce. No one came to play with me though :-(
