Tomatoes to the fire station!

I've used just about every avenue I can think of to find uses and consumers for my excess tomatoes. I've taken them to church. Our daughter delivered them door to door in her neighborhood. Those are are only two of many ways to put them to use. Yesterday, I wondered if fire stations can use fresh heirloom tomatoes. I know they cook a lot at the stations and they can also take them home when their shift ends.

I took three full Walmart bags to a large fire station in a local community this morning and asked if they would like some free home grown tomatoes. The response was "YOU BET". I guess I will be taking them one or two bags a week until the first frost plus some squash and cucumbers.
