Tomato Sunshine, Garden Center, Market, Fresh Produce, Local Veggies, Rehoboth Beach, Southern Delaware
Tomato Sunshine changes with the season. I love stopping by. It is very close to my home. To tell you the truth, at times I just pull in and walk around. The flowers are gorgeous, the produce is amazing. It all puts a smile on my face.
Tomato Sunshine is located at 19791 Coastal Highway, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Tel. 302-226-9533. Website? http://www.tomatosunshine.com. If you are vacationing, please stop in. Ernie and Donna are the owners and either one or the other is always there. Any questions you might have, just ask because everyone is so helpful. I always have an interest in different looking fruits and Ernie is quick to give me a description.
But, today I was looking for peaches. It is that time of the year. Tomato Sunshine has local peaches. Because of the hot weather they are ready. If you are baking or just enjoying them as a fruit, stop by. They are so sweet.l
I notice they had local fresh bread, as well. The bread came from Touch of Italy located at The Villages of Five Points in Lewes.
The corn, and the melons were just gorgeous.
The Honeydews were screaming…take me, take me…it is too hot!!
Then, my eyes focused on the mountain of tomatoes. The color was unreal.
There it was. The mother of all tomatoes. I picked it up and took it to the scale. I wanted to see its weight. Wow….1.74 lbs!! My gosh!. They told me the other day they had a 2 pounder.
It is the height of the season for a lot of the local produce. If you are visiting the Delaware Beaches, please just take time to enjoy what Southern Delaware has to offer. We have lots of farmers’ markets; local markets that open every day. You know what? You won’t regret it. The taste is just incredible.
Talk to you later. Have a good one!!
