I got wonderful vine tomatoes at Costco in Aberdeen and I live in the Highlands but have never seen any like that and mine anywhere. What market were you at Wendy?
Lucy – Ate them before the could get up to any mischief! 😉
Laura – Hello! They are lovely, aren’t they?
JG Castillo – Thank you. 🙂
Pippa – Exactly. The green ones looked like mini watermelons too.
Antonia – They did just that.
Eve & Alan – They were sold by MacLeod Organics. They have a stall at my local community market – last Saturday of every month, North Kessock village hall.
thanks wendy. I guess they may turn up at Dingwall market this weekend or I could always go out to Ardersier and see if they have them at source this week. Good idea,…. I could go to the cheese pantry too.
Hey Wendy,
These tomatoes look like what they are calling “Heirloom” tomatoes here in Texas, meaning non-hybidized, old stock being reintroduced. They look delicious!
Got to watch those wild tomatoes, they might invite the peppers and salsa over and have a salsa!!
I filled the slow cooker with chopped tomatoes from the farmer’s market, some fresh oregano, garlic, and some salt and pepper last night.
I woke up to the most wonderful – soup! I thought that I would make the finished tomatoes into a great pasta sauce, and that might still happen, but the taste was so wonderful and sweet, that half may stay soup. Yummy!
Yes, you do have to watch out for those crazy wild toms.
I’ve been lurking on your lovely blog for a while, but have come out of the woodwork to compliment those beautiful tomatoes!
Love your blog and photos, not to mention those tomatoes.
i like them, bit like a wild card ~ dont know what colour it will be next?
Very wild… Love the colours – would make such a pretty tomato salad.
where do you get tomatoes like that in the Highlands?

Perhaps the word he was looking for was ‘heirloom’?
Ha ha, love it! They look amazing too!
I definitely would love to try some tomatoes that live life on the edge, they could spice up a dish or two!
Ohhhh makes me want an omelet.
A tomato omelet, obviously. 🙂
They look like a bag of candy. We have really enjoyed our home grown ones this year as the past few years blight got to them before we did.
In fact I’m making a green and red tomato salsa to go fro dinner tonight! Enjoy enjoy…
