Nibby Bartle from Two Dog Farm responds to my post on Bartle family dry-farmed tomatoes:
Wow! We are thrilled at the attention and excitement generated by our awesome tomatoes. Thanks Marco! We felt so welcomed at Alemany that we're bringing almost twice as many tomatoes next time. Miles and I will also have a lot of heirloom tomatoes. Many heirlooms are overhyped, trendy, and not remarkable taste-wise, but we found some that are up to our standards. They're big, thin-skinned and an interesting purple-red when ripened.We bring them a little underripe so they can handle the market and journey home; they'll ripen beautifully.
My husband and I have been farming for more than 20 years and we've grown all sorts of vegetables, but our hearts belong to our dry-farmed tomatoes. They are so special. And they do elicite such passion from customers! Like a perfect peach or fragrant strawberry, our tomatoes seem so rare among modern supermarket produce. They bring people back to their childhoods, their old country, the family garden, sunny summer memories...
But the season is only about a month or two long, so don't hesitate!
