Why does Trisha Elric have tomatoes? In many episodes where Trisha (the boys’ mother) is seen, she is carrying, tending to, or harvesting tomatoes.


(Trisha in her tomato field; she is carrying tomatoes in her apron.)

Why does she have these tomatoes? Does she home-grow all of their food, or is this just a hobby of hers?
The Village of Resembool is a sheep-farming town in Amestris and is well known because of this

Village of Resembool

If you have watched the anime when Ed and Al go back home there are a lot of farms



So my guess is that she harvested her own vegetables for their food and maybe for trading.
