Description
High Prairie Farm (Brookings) grows this standard light green, bumpy pickling cucumber, and if you’re only looking to make a small batch of refrigerator pickles, this is the one for you! The farm uses organic practices, and the pickles are harvested the day before you get them.
Cucumbers for pickling refer to cucumbers that are used for processing or making pickles. This doesn’t mean they can’t be eaten fresh, but their thinner skins, crunchy texture and smaller seeds make them ideal for pickling.
