I refuse to believe that this carnage is my fault. There is a very old tree that is next to the garden and I think it has a disease. Trees aren't supposed to ooze, right? That tree is definitely sick, and I think it's contagious. All of my plants were beautiful and the tomatoes were getting blossoms, and then, one by one, they started dying. The things that are doing ok are the things that are at the ends of the garden, away from the gross tree.
There's corn,
and pumpkin,
and watermelon,
and green beans.
I guess there is something to be hopeful about, but I'm really, really sad about my dead tomatoes. I mean, that's the whole reason to plant a garden, right? So, when your tomato plants are weighed down with more fruit than you can possibly use, remember me and my sad garden. I promise to be your friend for life if you let me taste one.

Is it possible that the sick tree is a pecan tree? Tomatoes do not like pecan trees. Well, it is really the pecan tree roots that carry something that is fatal to tomato plants.
I have three thriving plants that I'm sure will have some tomatoes with your name on them. It works out well for you, because you already have to be my friend for life.
That is too bad about your tomatoes. But the rest looks beautiful. You guys are awesome!
That comment was Bryanna. Sorry!
