Harvest

Harvesting is going on in the Valley. Broccoli is almost done--The pea viners are out and the tiny Pickling Cukes are being hand picked and the bigger cukes are being harvested. How do those big machines vacuum up the peavines and separate the pods from the vines and then shell the peas and shoot them in the hopper without smushing everything? Same with the cucumber maching? The first is the pea viner and next the cucumber machine.
