This variety stood out in our 2021 variety trials. Its compact plant habit and small leaves make for easy harvest. But its productivity is what stood out the most, double that of some other pickler varieties! The fruits are good for fresh eating as well as pickling. Good disease resistance to many of the most common cucurbit diseases.

We're trialing and breeding new varieties!
This is the most challenging and thrilling part of our work.
The trialing allows us to test varieties of a same species side by side and determine which one(s) taste and perform the best.
Breeding and variety maintenance means selecting for traits that are desirable such as flavor, texture, disease resitance, earliness and hardiness, just to mention a few.
