In addition to featuring such legends as Ming Tsai and Tony Ambrose, the curated collection at Grapevine Shops (which donates proceeds to Family Reach to support families dealing with cancer) also lets you hear about Maitland Mountain Farms, which offers some of the best pickles this side of Grand Street.
Now Matt’s Meals fans know I LOVE pickles, but I have not loved pickles so much in some time! And to learn that they are made by a father-daughter team from my old hometown of Salem, MA, makes it all the sweeter (or sour-er).
In addition to cucumber-based pickles, Maintland Mountain makes over 20 other pickled products, including krauts and kimchees, as well as plain and pickled radishes, onions, green beans, and even cauliflower (much of which is available through their own CSA program). They might even help you get picky eaters to enjoy their veggies! In any case, they are sure to pucker you up and impress you with some locally-sourced sweet and sour success
