Tomatoes?

The farm is offering bulk tomatoes: $20 for 20 lb of plum tomatoes, and $10 for a half bushel of seconds (no variety specified). They're organic, too.

Is anyone interested in going in with me on some tomatoes? (I should call by Monday to make the Wednesday farm pickup.)


ETA I don't have a scale at home; should we approximate or can someone bring theirs to divvy the tomatoes up?

Hell yeah. That's a damned good price. I'm in. Perhaps we can talk appropriate quantity that I'd buy in for on Saturday.

And um, how much is a half bushel. I'd be willing to go in on that also--I'm thinking it would be fun to make my own spaghetti sauce (something I have done before but not in a very long time.)

Googling has got me a variety of answers as to how much half a bushel is in tomatoes. Somewhere around 30 lb.
