World Cucumber Tour Collection

Approximately 4-5 lb Collection · Harvested to Order • Ships Nationwide

Take your taste buds on a journey around the world.

Our World Cucumber Tour Collection brings together an ever-changing assortment of extraordinary heirloom cucumbers from Italy, Japan, China, India, the Middle East, Europe, the Caribbean, and beyond. Carefully harvested at peak flavor and shipped overnight from our farm, each collection invites you to discover just how remarkably diverse cucumbers can be.

Most Americans have only tasted one or two varieties of cucumber. Around the world, however, hundreds of heirloom varieties have been cultivated for generations, each with its own unique flavor, texture, history, and culinary tradition.

Every collection includes 5–8 different heirloom cucumber varieties, depending on what is at its peak that week. Whenever available, we also include a small selection of fresh herbs to complement your tasting experience.

This is a fresh product for eating and enjoying. We do not sell seeds or plants.

Your Journey Around the World

🇮🇹 Italy — Carosello
Often called a melon, but harvested and enjoyed as a cucumber. Sweet, exceptionally crisp, incredibly juicy, and completely free of the bitterness often found in conventional cucumbers.

🌍 Middle East — Haroush
A treasured summer cucumber with tender skin, refreshing crunch, and delicate sweetness. Wonderful with yogurt, herbs, olive oil, and grilled meats.

🇮🇳 India — Poona Kheera
One of the world's most fascinating heirloom cucumbers. As it ripens, its skin changes from green to a rich russet while the flesh remains crisp, sweet, and slightly nutty.

🇯🇵 Japan — Natsu & Itachi
Elegant Japanese cucumbers prized for their thin skins, tiny seed cavities, exceptional crunch, and remarkably clean, refreshing flavor.

🇨🇳 China — Suyo Long
A beautiful heirloom known for its impressive length, graceful curves, crisp texture, and outstanding sweetness.

🌍 Armenia — Armenian Cucumber
Technically a melon harvested young like a cucumber. Mild, refreshing, beautifully ribbed, and exceptionally crisp.

🇪🇺 Europe — European & White Kirby
Traditional European pickling cucumbers with dense flesh and outstanding crunch. Equally delicious fresh, with the White Kirby adding a striking ivory color.

🇯🇲 Caribbean — Jamaican Burr Gherkin
Small, spiny, and unlike almost anything found in supermarkets. Crisp, flavorful, and a conversation starter at any summer table.

🌍 Specialty Varieties
Depending on the week, your collection may also include Quark, Lemon Cucumber, and other seasonal heirloom varieties from our fields.

A Farm-to-Table Tasting Experience

This isn't simply a box of cucumbers—it's an opportunity to compare flavors, textures, aromas, and culinary traditions from around the world.

Slice them side by side. Taste them with flaky sea salt, good olive oil, fresh herbs, yogurt, labneh, or hummus. You'll quickly discover that no two heirloom cucumbers are quite alike.

Complimentary Fresh Herbs

Whenever available, we include a small selection of fresh herbs harvested alongside the cucumbers. Depending on the season, your collection may include Bush Basil, Dill, Summer Savory, Mint, Lemon Basil, Shiso, or other aromatic herbs to inspire salads, sandwiches, and simple summer meals.

Harvested for Flavor

Unlike cucumbers harvested days before reaching the grocery store, ours are picked to order and shipped overnight directly from our farm. That freshness preserves the crisp texture, delicate sweetness, and exceptional flavor that make heirloom cucumbers so special.
