The below tomatos came from a 12 foot by 25 ft tomato cave that had 50 indeterminant plants, some of which grew almost 30 feet in length with a new cluster every nine to twelve inches.

This picture conveys why a cave garden is better than the urban sprawl of land hugging vines that ends up looking like and deserving of the name "dreadlock" gardening.

One can see why over 50% of the tomatos were given away. A separate 40 ft by 12 feet patch contained 60 determinants which were used for canning tomato salsa, sauce and juice. Drip irrigation allows a greater density of plants with higher productivity per square foot. Remember, Drip or Skip.

People: Abraham Lincoln said that one would measure his life in the relationships he had with other people. The Anne Street garden has been a personal Grand Central Terminal whereat many people were directly and indirectly (both immediately and belatedly) an accumulated cornucopia of joy.

How many times have you had people stop to tell you that you have a great garden or told you that they started a garden because of seeing your garden? More amazing are the people who knocked on the door to convey the same. Crudely, but truly, give up the dollardumb shop-till-ya-drop for the joy of pennywise grow-till-ya-glow.
