You will need to put netting over the plant. Or you can pick those tomatoes 🍅 when they are green right before they turn red. Just set the green tomatoes on your countertop to ripen. Do not put them in the refrigerator. Hope that helps!
You can buy bird netting at any garden center. Place it over your tomato bed and anchor it down with garden pegs. They'll still get the sunshine and water they need and birds, deer and rabbits won't eat them on you!
