Where is Alefantis's tomato farm? (pizzagate)

'we harvest a whole crop of organic tomatoes — 10 tons of tomatoes every year.'

Where does Comet grow its annual harvest of 10 tons of tomatoes?

Could this farm be the location of the building shown in these photos, which doesn't look to me like the basement of a city restaurant? It looks like a farm building.

Notice that two people asked where these pictures were taken (Miguel Vaquedano Cooper and Ralph Brabham), but neither received an answer.

they dont grow them, they get them from Mark Toigo's orchard in Pennsylvania.

You're right - it says in Beth Kanter's book Washington, DC Chef's Table: Extraordinary Recipes from the Nation's Capital that the tomatoes are grown at Toigo Orchard in Pennsylvania 'just for the restaurant' and that the people from Comet help harvest them. This is presumably in mid-summer. Notice that Alefantis writes, 'holiday joy.' Could the location of these photos therefore be Toigo Orchard?

Indeed, that looks a bit odd.

But despite that I cant find anything else on their site that looks odd. Anyone willing to put some work in it and check them?
