I've donated a box of tomatoes most weeks. One week I did some canning with a friend and left her the boxful we didn't get to. I've given them away at garden shares and garden meetings. In the past week I cut up a bunch and froze them. I give tomatoes away if I see anyone at one of the community gardens. Yesterday I gave my biggest Portuguese Monster to a friend who stopped by to chat.
I planted about the same number of plants as in past years, but this year I have at least an extra 10-20 tomatoes a week. In past years I gave away 1-3 tomatoes a week.
And my late-planted tomatoes (mostly cherry and currant varieties) have just started to produce!
