Winter sources of heirlooms in western FL?

g8shot1 · August 25, 2010

We are still flowering and setting fruit but the cold months are on my mind more and more. We've been able to can a few quarts of sauce and juice but it won't be nearly enough for what seems like a six month sentence of dark and cold. I'm really going to miss slicing up a freshly harvested black krim.

We are fortunate enough to be able to spend part of the winter in Venice, FL. Does anyone know anywhere to purchase great tasting tomatoes on the west coast of FL in the October through February timeframe? We're willing to go pretty much from Tampa to Ft Myers.

TIA,
Jim/Rose/Natasha
