Transporting Ripe

Captain Neon · May 16, 2016

I will be visiting my sister in a neighbouring state, and her yard is too small to grow her own tomatoes. We are planning to bring her an embarrassment of riches from my own tomatoes. This will be a car trip of approximately 6 hours.

As some are getting ripe tomatoes in warmer locales, I thought now would be a good time to start this discussion even though my trip will not be until early August.

Any suggestions to get ripe tomatoes delivered safely via ground transport: particularly thin-skinned heirloom varieties such as Brandywine?
