Cucumbers

Trellis-grown, uniform and crisp

Overview

About our cucumbers

Growing cucumbers on vertical trellises keeps fruit straight, clean and evenly coloured while improving airflow and reducing disease pressure.

Fruit is cut at the ideal size window and cooled quickly, delivering the crunch and shelf life that retailers and caterers depend on.

Our Process

How we grow it

01

Trellising

Vines are trained vertically for straight, unblemished fruit.

02

Pollination

Managed pollination supports even fruit set across the block.

03

Scouting

Regular crop scouting catches pest and disease issues early.

04

Cool chain

Fruit is cooled quickly after cutting to preserve firmness.
