Reportage photos showing the sun-ripe San Marzano tomatoes as they make their way from the field to the tin

In this reportage series, we follow the San Marzano tomatoes from the field just southeast of Mount Vesuvius, through the hands of the experienced pickers, to being weighed at the co-operative, and through to quality control. They are washed, sorted, steamed, sorted, and then re-sorted before the very best ones are put into tins.
