Bread and Butter Pickles! A classic old fashioned traditional recipe. Sweet, tart, and satisfying. We use a tried-and-true recipe from the 30's ...a prize winning traditional recipe. Made with our own Certified Organic cucumbers, onions, and sweet peppers, with vinegar, cane sugar, sea salt, and spices.

Classic Sweet Gherkins with a twist! Sweet and crunchy, made of West Indian Gherkin cucumbers! We call these cucumbers the "hedgehog" cukes! They are rock hard and spiny, not at all appetizing raw. BUT the recipe is a multi-day sugar cure followed by pickling, and the process penetrates and softens the cukes. The result is a crunchy sweet and tangy pickle that is surprisingly delectable!

(pictured) Pickled Sweet Peppers, a great side to go with almost anything! Beautiful yellow, orange, and red ...Turkish Corbaci peppers (Certified Organic). Contains peppers, cane sugar, vinegar, and spices.

A medley of colorful Fingerlings. Fingerlings are "prized for their interesting colors and exquisite flavors" says the Maine Potato Lady. Excellent roasted or steamed and tossed with butter & parsley.

From the Kitchen Garden Seeds Website, where we got the seeds:
"These 8-ounce to 1-pound, deep Brunswick green, just-shy-of-black Pumpkins are pint-sized, but they pack a big dramatic punch. They have a classic rounded, deeply ribbed shape and a black stem. Add these little devils to spooky fall displays, or use their sweet, pale orange flesh in your favorite Pumpkin pie recipe. They store well, eventually turning orange."
