These cucumbers from the island of Reichenau in Baden-Württemberg are distinguished by their elongated shape and an intense green color. The special climatic and geographical conditions of the island of Reichenau make it perfect for growing cucumbers – Bodensee lake, which surrounds the island, serves as a light reflector and heat storage.
Cucumbers from the island of Reichenau are grown exclusively in organic substrates in the naturally limited growing area of the island, often in greenhouses. The cultivating process on the island is completely different from anywhere else in Europe.
