52 days to harvest Cucumis sativus

The perfect pickle! Impressively prolific, these gorgeously blunt-ended pickling cukes average six inches, though we often harvest them smaller. Whether you’re snacking in the garden, tossing on salads or pickling a pint or filling your pantry, National Pickling will not disappoint you.

Would you love to receive these seeds? Rather than selling and shipping, we share seeds as an embodied gift practice.
