Great idea!

We're just transitioning now from the bend over the bucket to our new
processing shed!  There is a great book out that we've not had the time
to read that goes through all sorts of plans for processing tables,
sheds, etc.  Its called "Small-scale Postharvest Handling practices: A
Manual for Horticultural Crops"  by Lisa Kitinoja and Adel Kader from UC
Davis.  I think we ordered it through Johnny's Seeds.
