In the forest below the Blackwater Dam in Webster, NH, John was searching for patridge berries and came across this Indian Cucumber. He has wanted to find the cucumber for quite a long time so that I could taste it. It is an unusual plant — a low pedestal base, a tall stalk and a crown of three leaves. The white root tastes cool, crisp and sweet.
