By Heather Bryant, Regional Field Specialist, Food and Agriculture If you drive by the Grafton County Complex these days you can see the first of ripening tomatoes growing in the high tunnel. The start of the tomato harvest is my favorite part of any growing sea- son. Our first harvest was July 24th, about a week earlier than I had initially anticipated! Our plan is to har- vest weekly until the end of the season sometime in September or October. Tomatoes ripening in the trial. The tomatoes are part of a research project so we count and weigh the harvest from each plant individually and take notes on fruit quality. Once that’s done the tomatoes are donated to local senior centers, nursing homes and food pantries. When I use the words research project people tend get an alarmed look on their faces and ask if the tomatoes are safe to eat. Yes, they are! We don’t do anything to them that you wouldn’t do in your own garden! Half the fun of working on an agricultural research project is taste testing the fruits of your labor. Specifically, we are researching the fertility requirements of high tunnel tomatoes using a combination of organic nitrogen and potassium fertilizers. A high tunnel is a lower technology green- house where the crops are generally grown in the ground rather than on benches. It is actually the second year of a five year study at our UNH Cooperative Extension High Tunnel Research and Education Facility housed at the County Complex. Our tunnel is one of three sites involved in the project. The other two sites are in Durham, NH and Monmouth, ME and the project is a collabo Story continues on page A3
