Since 1968,The Cucumber Man has been providing the people of Alberta with locally grown, fresh and healthy vegetables. "I've been doing this for 28 years," says Rick Wagenaar, co-owner of The Cucumber Man, "and in that time I've learned that value is about more than just dollars and cents. It's about a quality product, and quality relationships with the people who buy it.
At The Cucumber Man, we specialize in just that: growing real food for Albertans."
