Tomatoes Forever

Is this year’s crop of tomatoes the best you’ve ever tasted? Consider saving seeds for next summer’s garden. Cut a ripe tomato in half and squeeze the seeds and pulp into a small plastic container with a lid. Place in a warm area for several days to ferment. Rinse the seeds well and place on a paper towel or plate to dry. Store in refrigerator. (Seeds of hybrid tomatoes will not breed purely.)
