Welcome to garden healing! From now on, I like to call gardening activities Garden healing. It's like healing ourselves, although it doesn't directly contribute to our health. But gardening activities actually stimulate many things in our bodies to significantly improve our health. Do you agree with that?
This December, I only have a few plants left to harvest. That's because I will intentionally rest my garden to be able to restore the soil nutrients that will make the plants healthy.
In the previous Garden journal, you can find out how I take care of my tomato plants and also my chilies. They are the types of plants left in my garden this December. Today, I am happy to share my harvest activities which are a very enjoyable Garden Healing activity.
You can see the tomatoes in my garden are starting to turn red. Oh, they are blushing beautifully. Imagine it like the cheeks of a girl who is in love. It sprays a beautiful and cute reddish color, also adorable Right?
The tomato plants have a lot of fruit. Although the size of their fruit is not big. That's because I use an organic fertilization system, not using chemical fertilizers. Small size is okay. For me, because this is for personal consumption. So large size is not a measure of success. The most important thing in organic farming is actually a healthy harvest, especially for daily food consumption. Organic farming will also affect the health of quality long-term soil.
The tomatoes from the tomato trees do not ripen evenly. That's actually good in my opinion. It makes me have a longer supply of tomatoes for cooking supplies in my kitchen.
If in large quantities that can be harvested, it's not good because I have to finish the ripe tomatoes all at once in a short time. Luckily the tomatoes gave me a little harvest at a time, but it was fun.
Beautiful tomatoes. Thank you for giving me a harvest that makes my cheeks blush happily. This is the tomato harvest for the first session. In a few days, of course I will harvest these tomatoes again.
Although not all the tomatoes are harvested, but look I have a lot of harvest for personal consumption. The plan is, I will only make salad from these tomatoes because they are organic. So it is very fresh and delicious.
Also, next time I will plan to make my own tomato sauce supply. Because my husband does like sauce but I will combine it with chili.
In addition to the tomato plants that I harvested, I also harvested pak choi vegetables because I did not pull out all of these pak choi plants. I only cut their leaves, so I can harvest them as often as possible.
The harvest that makes me very happy this time. Counting the days to the end of 2024 and I am grateful for my garden which gives great productivity. See you in 2025. ❤️❤️❤️

Those tomatoes look so vibrant, healthy, and delicious. My mom when we were small had a little tomato and pepper garden. You remind me of her and how she tended to her veggies.
Thanks for sharing. Take care.

I'm also planning on growing some small cherry tomatoes later in the new year. I think they'd be great for salads, but I'm curious, and looking for a sweeter type.
Garden variety is the best. I love cherry tomatoes and eat them whole in salads due to their small size.
Thanks for sharing.

Happy gardening! ☘️☘️☘️
Your tomato harvest is truly impressive! You know, I prefer tomatoes that are still slightly yellow or a bit orange because they’re crunchier to eat. Fully red tomatoes, on the other hand, are a bit softer and are perfect for mixing into dishes like scrambled eggs or omelets.
No problem. Sometimes I also harvest them green to make stir-fried veggies or making sour sauces 😊
I also love to eat raw 😊
Yes! Same here! Green tomato. =)
Gardening is good for your health, many consider it a good therapy because the contact with nature renews your health 🙏
I like the term “Garden healing”, it is very well applied hehe
Especially, when you had barefoot in the morning :)
What a lovely and heartwarming post, Anggrek. 🌱🍅 Those blushing tomatoes are absolute beauties. Bet they’ll make a killer salad or sauce. Organic farming for the win! Keep rocking that Garden healing life, and here’s to an even juicier 2025. 🤘
Thanks, dear!
Yes, super yummy and healthy suace is on the way now 😊
Also, tomato is good source of antioxidant as well 😊❤️
What a beautiful crop you have, I am so glad for all that you do based on your good health. Those tomatoes look very good, thank you for maintaining that wonderful culture of planting, I hope you have very good cures in the year 2025.
The reason I started gardening is that I want to consume healthier organic vegetables. While buying them would be more expensive. Thanks for stopping by
@anggreklestari Wow, so nice to see such fresh and red tomatoes. They will be perfect for making salads and sauces. After all the hard work, it is a great feeling to harvest from your own garden. You must be too.
That's right, salads are the best
You are truly dedicated to growing your garden. It's worth the effort I must say,..

Without a doubt, a great harvest of tomatoes (their color looks incredible). A versatile and very tasty ingredient.
I particularly like the sauce (a lot).
Tomato sauce is the best to use abundance of tomatoes :)
What beautiful tomatoes, honestly I was provoked to eat them in a salad of tomatoes, lettuce, a little salt, a little bit of dried oregano leaves and olive oil with a good parmesan cheese.
Yes yes yes! Tomato salad is the best. Do not forget to add protein ingredients 😊
If we truly seen that our Vegetables grows very healthy, specially if we harvested, it can make ourselves proud Ma'am. ☺ It is great to see your healthy vegetables in your Garden Ma'am @anggreklestari . ☺
Impressive red and delicious tomatoes. I have a large yard at home and I think it would be good to learn how to grow tomatoes. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
Slow by slowly you can start with container to grow some herbs for your kitchen 😊
Very good harvest, I love tomatoes. My dad also planted tomatoes this year, he is a farmer and spends most of his time with his crops.
Oh, good luck of him! I hope his plants can give your family beautiful crops as well 😊
Great work, We are in the peak of winter here, wish I could be growing tomatoes.
I hope your plan will running well :)
Do not forget to prepare your soil :)
Wao, this looks so good and it really showed that you have taken your time to take care of it from the results you showed. Good one my friend..
Thanks there! Did you start your own garden?
Yeah, I actually start a small one but I haven't been able to pay close attention to it due to external factors
Wow, what a beautiful orchard and what nice tomatoes. How lucky you are!
Thank you! Needed more and more learning everyday to maximazed the results 😊
Enjoy the harvest, the tomatoes look very fresh and there are several other types of vegetables, in my area it is very difficult to enjoy the harvest, because the current weather is very chaotic.
Yeah, in some area here also tomato still in higher prices due to bad weather.
Take care for you
So much fun harvesting them. Fresh and healthy.😃
Really, so much fun!
There is this joy and fulfillment that comes with harvest.
Absolutely! Like a gift!
Exactly!!

shove the tomatoes up your arse
C'mon now.., they are nice tomatoes.., not to stick up your rump.
Since the tomatoes are organic, I don't have to worry about eating them raw. Oh, I have a good stock of salad.
In Indonesia, the price of tomatoes is expensive, also affected by the rainy season and affects the quality of tomato planting in most farms out there.
hey, thanks for your visit. I really appreciate it. @slobberchops 😊
I use them on sandwiches most days, food isn't the same without them!
Yes! For me, also as topping for omelette 😊
