I just ate fresh tomatoes out of last summer's garden (Maine)

9. We save the last green tomatoes each year, set them in a cardboard box so they don't touch,

cover with a couple newspapers and then add another layer of smaller tomatoes.

It is best to select only unblemished green tomatoes with no breaks in the skin and of more or less normal shape.

The longest ours lasted was till after Thanksgiving. There are always one or two that "go bad", but most ripen just fine in our Dad cool basement pantry.

To have edible garden tomatoes this late is fantastic! You must have done something very right.
