Too bad, I do not have time to visit the garden, but the seller's of suri cucumber has a garden that is not too far from where he was selling cucumbers. This grandfather, along with a beloved granddaughter sells many suri cucumber beside the main of provincial road. Even with the limitations of age, he still has a passion for sales, he was not tired, and still have the energy. I saw him when selling, and I am happy, I am amazed for his efforts. His daughter, the mother of his granddaughter is still in the garden, collect the fruit that are ripe.

Look, the old man was stuffing a cucumber into a pouch made from the bark of the banana tree. A unique, because I just saw cucumber only which are treated as such. The reason is very simple, because the suri cucumber, when it ripe, the fruit will split, and as a protector, bags that made from banana tree bark will prevent the fragments from scattered.

The place to sell cucumber was made with a very simple, just a long chair made of bamboo. When I bought this, initially I was driving, and was surprised when there are sellers cucumber is on a side street. I'm surprised it was not without reason, as usual, the fruit of this type is only sold when month of Ramadan. Though month of Ramadan is still longer.

I have purchased 2 cucumber from this grandfather, and has been made into juice, I ever told it in Steemit, here.
