The family went to the plot this evening for a quick look-see at some of the tomatoes and beans that weren't quite ready for harvest on Sunday. As I suspected, there were some tomatoes and beans to harvest. Included in the tomatoes harvested are two volunteers from one of the plants in the watermelon box. I'll have to research what those were for proper identification. We got a few ground cherries and also saw that there are now two fully-red cayenne peppers and a few (3?) cayenne's that have a blush.
I can't possible reiterate how great it is to finally be able to harvest beans and tomatoes from the plot. After having the beans wiped out last year -- 2 gallon bags of green beans from 7 boxes of green/red/lima beans -- and having no tomatoes ripen, it's sudden and glorious vindication.
