*NOTE: If using cucumbers from the garden, and/or organic cucumbers, it is not necessary to peel them unless you wish. Store bought cucumbers (especially conventional produce) need to be peeled to remove the wax.
In a large salad bowl, combine the cucumbers, grapes and celery.
In a small non-reactive bowl combine the dressing. Pour over the cucumber mixture and toss gently.
Season with freshly ground black pepper.
Cover and chill until ready to serve.
