We are so excited to share the news that our Organic Sauerkraut has received top honors at the 2024 Good Food Awards!
The winners were announced on April 29th at the historic Portland Center Stage at The Armory in Portland, Oregon. Real Pickles co-op members Kristin Howard and Katie Korby received the award at the ceremony celebrating 218 of America’s best food crafters.
“We’re so proud to receive this award,” said Kristin Howard, General Manager of Real Pickles. “Producing food that is both delicious and grown in our region is at the core of Real Pickles’ mission, and we’re honored to be recognized by the Good Food Foundation, alongside producers nationwide who have similar values.”
The organic green cabbage used in the winning recipe was grown by area farms, including Atlas Farm in South Deerfield, Massachusetts and Harlow Farm in Westminster, Vermont.
Other winners from New England include Stoneman Brewery in Colrain, Massachusetts, Tavernier Chocolates in Brattleboro, Vermont and Champlain Orchards in Shoreham, Vermont.
The winners rose to the top in a tasting of 1,650 entries, then passed a rigorous vetting to confirm they meet Good Food Awards standards regarding ingredient sourcing and environmentally sound agricultural practices.
