With our exploding bunny population in the barn, I needed to make some room for more grow outs. Butchered 7 today, planning on making sausage with them again.

Before and after photos of our unruly tomatoes that needed some pruning. 140+ tomatoes got trimmed today. Wife says they look naked now. Told her thats the point, if they feel a breeze then I did it right. Pruning helps keep the tomatoes healthy and disease free.
