Our Farmers

Real Pickles Farm MapAs part of our commitment to support a regional, organic food system, we purchase all of our vegetables and fresh herbs and spices from organic family farms in the Northeast.

We source primarily from 8 organic farms located within 40 miles of Real Pickles and benefiting from the rich soils of the Connecticut River Valley. The farmers we work with have a wealth of experience in growing organically. The result is vegetables of the highest quality, full of flavor and nutrients.

We invite you to read these profiles of our farmers.
