Finding tomatoes for canning this late in the season?

[shana]

Hi there - I want to try my hand at canning tomatoes. I bought all the jars but then got busy and haven't gotten around to it.

Does anyone know where I can get a bushel of roma tomatoes in Toronto? Preferably east of Yonge, Danforth and south and not east of the Beach.

Am I too late?

You might also want to try the farmers' markets - last week they were flooded with all manner of tomatoes. Riverdale is going on until 7pm today, and is right in your 'hood.

It's out of your area (but not too far), but they have them at Fiesta Gardens at Christie & Essex (just north of Bloor).

I drove my friend ALL over the east end last Sunday looking for them. No luck.
Another friend spotted them at Superstore in Grimsby for $4.50 a bushel ! (I know, too far)

They had them here last weekend.

Good luck !
