Yay! I feel bad when I want tomatoes but the only ones in the store have been schlepped half way across the world. Makes me wonder if we really need tomatoes in winter, and also how it could possibly be cheaper to import tomatoes than grow them locally.
My personal revolution is trying to minimize grocery store trips in favor of participating in a local CSA (community supported agriculture) and cooking from scratch as often as possible.
I feel the same, and that's why this year I attempted to plant them!
